Core Concepts
How Percentages Relate to Fractions and Decimals
Slide 4 of 11
Slide 4 - Percentage, Fractions, and Decimals
The Trio Concept A percentage is essentially a fraction with a denominator of 100.
- 50% = 50/100 = 0.5
- 25% = 25/100 = 0.25
- 10% = 10/100 = 0.1
Conversion Guide
- Fraction to Percent: Multiply by 100 and add %. (e.g., 1/4 * 100 = 25%)
- Decimal to Percent: Move decimal two places right. (e.g., 0.75 = 75%)
- Percent to Decimal: Move two places left. (e.g., 5% = 0.05)

Exploring Limits
Percentages Greater than 100% and Less than 1%
Slide 6 of 11
Slide 6 - Extreme Percentages
- Greater than 100%: Represents more than the whole. E.g., a 150% increase means the original amount plus an additional 50%. (1.5 times the original).
- Less than 1%: Represents a very small fraction of the whole. E.g., 0.5% = 0.005. Used often in interest rates or chemical compositions.
- Rule: Always convert to decimals first for calculations (e.g., 200% = 2.0; 0.25% = 0.0025).

Practical Applications
Calculating Quantities and Making Comparisons
Slide 8 of 11
Slide 8 - Calculating and Comparing
- Percentage of a Quantity: To find X% of Y, use (X/100) Y. E.g., 20% of 500 = 0.20 500 = 100.
- Comparing Quantities: To find what percentage one quantity is of another: (Part/Whole) 100. E.g., Comparing 20 to 80: (20/80) 100 = 25%.

Mastering Percentage Change Calculations
Slide 10 of 11
Slide 10 - Percentage Change Explained
- Percentage Change Formula: ((New Value - Old Value) / Old Value) 100.
- Example: Price goes from 50 to 60. Change = ((60-50)/50) 100 = 20% increase.
- Reverse Percentage: Finding the original value after a percentage change. If a price increased by 20% to reach 120, original = 120 / 1.20 = 100.
