Decimals and Percentages - Equivalent Fractions, Decimals and Percentages - Worksheet

The worksheet in question is designed to enhance children's understanding of equivalent fractions, decimals, and percentages. It begins by helping students recognise simple equivalent fractions and represent them as decimals and percentages, with a focus on common fractions such as 1/2, 1/4, 1/5, and 2/5. Once they are comfortable with these, they move on to fractions with denominators that are multiples of 10 or 25. To aid comprehension, the worksheet suggests using bar models and hundred squares to visually demonstrate equivalence. Additionally, a completed or partial decimal wall is provided as a visual aid to help students understand the relationships between different representations of numbers.

The worksheet also includes various activities to solidify the students' grasp of the concept. They are tasked with using bead strings to represent percentages and then converting those percentages into decimals and simplified fractions. Students are also asked to place these representations correctly on a number line. In another activity, they use bar models to convert fractions into percentages and decimals, enhancing their fluency and precision with these mathematical concepts. To deepen their understanding, the worksheet presents reasoning and problem-solving questions where students sort various fractions, decimals, and percentages into the correct categories and solve real-world problems involving these numerical representations.
