Decimal, Fraction and Percentage

by 053552 on January 6, 2012

We just finish a math project on fraction, Percents and decimal. We had to choose 5 fraction and show the percentage, fraction out of a hundred and the decimal. We also had to color the hundred box grid and how much is the fraction out of a hundred.

I found out that fraction, decimals and percentage are connected because if one half is equal to 1 out of 2 so if you divide 2 into 1 you will get 0.5 and that is the decimal. And if you want to find out the percentage of the fraction you just have to times 1 and 2 by five then it will be 5 out of 10 so if ten is 100% then 5 will be 50%.

This now what I understand that Fractions, Decimal and Percentage are connected and they all have is a part of a whole.

You worked hard on this task and reflection, Enton. You have described the connection between fractions, percents and decimals by explaining how they can represent the same amount. However, I needed to see more explanation with regards to how they all show the same whole-part relationship.
