6. Ratio to a Percent
Part-to-Whole Ratios can be expressed in the form of a percentage. Example: 15 coins out of the total 25 coins in the collection are quarters. What percent of the coin collection are quarters?

100 =

7. 15 coins out of the total 25 coins in the collection are quarters
15 coins out of the total 25 coins in the collection are quarters. What percent of the coin collection are quarters?
Step One: Write the example as a ratio in fraction form. Step Two: Remember, a Percent is “out of 100”! Set up an equivalent ratio (or proportion)- something “out of 100”. Step Three: Solve for the percent by multiplying or dividing the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero number!
15 quarters 25 coins
15 quarters 25 coins
? 100 =
60 % x4
15 x 4 = 60
15 quarters 25 coins
? 100 = = x4

8. Percent of a Number
We can also use the percent to help us find the missing part or the whole. Example 1: If there are 20 coins in the collection, find 25% of the total coins. Example 2: If 80% of the collection is 20 coins, how many coins are in the collection?

9. 25 % of the total collection is 5 coins.
Example 1: If there are 20 coins in the collection, find 25% of the total coins.
Step One: Identify which parts of the proportion you have.
Step Two: Solving for the missing value by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero number.
25 % of the total collection is 5 coins.
Step One: Identify which parts of the proportion you have. Step Two: Solving for the missing value by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero number. 25 % of the total collection is 5 coins.

10. Example 2: If 80% of the collection is 20 coins, how many coins are in the collection?
Step One: Identify which parts of the proportion you have. Step Two: Solving for the missing value by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero number. If 80% of the collection is 20 coins, there is 25 coins in the collection.

11. Ratio to a Decimal
When ratios are written in the form of a fraction, we can easily convert from the fraction form to a decimal. Example: The Raiders completed 9 out of the 12 field goal attempts. What part of the field goals were completed?

12. The fraction bar tells you to divide the numerator by the denominator.
The Raiders completed 9 out of the 12 field goal attempts. What part of the field goals were completed?
Step One: Write the example as a ratio in fraction form. Step Two: Remember, to convert from a fraction to a decimal you divide the numerator by the denominator. Step Three: Divide and Solve!
9 completed 12 total
The fraction bar tells you to divide the numerator by the denominator.
9 completed 12 total
9 completed 12 total
Field goals were completed 0.75 of the time. = =
