Learning objective
What this activity builds
Convert a percentage to a decimal multiplier and predict how it changes a quantity.
Worked example
Find 0.1% of 89.9.
0.0899
0.1% =0.1 ÷100 =0.001. Therefore 89.9 ×0.001 =0.0899. The answer is one thousandth of the original amount, not one tenth.
Teaching notes
Make the practice count
- Begin with 10% and whole numbers, then introduce 1% and 100%.
- Compare 100% and 1000% explicitly: they mean one times and ten times the amount.
- The number-range setting describes the integer part. Decimal practice adds one fractional digit, so the smaller range can include 99.9.
- Use word prompts after students recognize the numeric percentage expression. Switching prompt style preserves the questions.
- Selected percentages are distributed across the ten questions. The key shows the decimal multiplier and the exact product.
