Fascinating Fact:

In sports, fractions, percentages, and decimals are used to record success rates and accuracy, such as a footballer scoring in 75 percent of games.

In KS3 Maths, you link three number forms that show the same value in different ways. You will convert between fractions, percentages, and decimals, compare quantities, and solve questions about money, measures, and probability with clear methods.

  • Fraction: A number written as a/b, showing parts of a whole.
  • Percentage: A fraction out of 100, written with the percent symbol %, for example 27%.
  • Decimal: A number written using a decimal point, such as 0.4 or 2.75.
How do I convert a fraction to a percentage?

Divide the numerator by the denominator, then multiply by 100%. Example: 3/8 = 0.375, so 0.375 × 100% = 37.5%.

What is 15% as a fraction and as a decimal?

15% means 15 out of 100, so 15% = 15/100 = 3/20. As a decimal it is 0.15.

How do I find 35% of a number like 80?

Change 35% to a decimal and multiply: 35% = 0.35, so 0.35 × 80 = 28. You can also use 35/100 × 80 = 28.
