Study Notes
Percentages of 3-Digit Numbers
- To find a percentage of a 3-digit number, multiply the number by the percentage (as a decimal)
- For example, 25% of 240 = 240 × 0.25 = 60
Percentage Increase and Decrease
- To find the percentage increase, first find the difference between the two values, then divide by the original value and multiply by 100
- For example, if a value increases from 150 to 180, the percentage increase is ((180 - 150)/150) × 100 = 20%
- To find the percentage decrease, follow the same steps, but subtract the difference from 100 to get the percentage decrease
Fractions of 3-Digit Numbers
- To find a fraction of a 3-digit number, multiply the number by the numerator (top number) and divide by the denominator (bottom number)
- For example, 1/4 of 240 = (1/4) × 240 = 60
Equivalent Fractions
- Equivalent fractions have the same value, but different numerators and denominators
- To find an equivalent fraction, multiply or divide both the numerator and denominator by the same number
- For example, 1/2 is equivalent to 2/4, as both have the same value (halve of the whole)
Converting Decimals to Percentages
- To convert a decimal to a percentage, multiply by 100
- For example, 0.25 as a percentage is 0.25 × 100 = 25%
