What are percentages in Year 5 maths?

Percentages are numbers expressed as parts out of 100. For example, 25% means 25 out of every 100, which is the same as one quarter.

How do you change a fraction to a percentage?

To change a fraction to a percentage, divide the numerator by the denominator, then multiply the answer by 100. For example, 1/2 becomes 50%.
