Module 7: Lesson 2

Module 7: Lesson 2

by Mr. Wellner

​Objective

I can write a percent as a fraction or a decimal and use multiplication to find the percent of a number.​

​A Percent shows us how many "parts of 100"

Fill in the Blanks

​Bree makes $250 per week.

​By putting the $250 in the top bar and splitting it into 10 pieces we can find out how much 10% of $250 is. Then we can multiply that by 4 because 10% + 10% + 10% + 10% = 40%.

​So if 10% of $250 is $25, then 40% is $100.

​$250

​$25

​So Bree saves $100 per paycheck.
