61. Fractions, Decimals, Ratios, And Percents to teach my students to solve these problems the same way I had learned them. In the first type, students were taught to rename the percent as a decimal by http://mathed.uta.edu/cases/enc/133164/3164_106.htm

Percents, Proportions, and Grids I have had a great deal of difficulty teaching the three types of percent problems: What is 15% of 20? What % of 20 is 3? 3 is 15% of what number? Early in my teaching career, I used to teach my students to solve these problems the same way I had learned them. In the first type, students were taught to rename the percent as a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left and multiplying the two numbers together. In the second and third types, students were taught to divide the two numbers. This method was unsuccessful since many students could not remember when to multiply or when to divide, or, when they had to divide, which number was to be divided by which. I also taught students to solve these problems using equations. Regardless of which way I taught it, I had a nagging feeling that if the students came up with the correct answers it was only because they were able to manipulate the numbers. I was convinced there must be a better way to teach percents. This year I decided to teach percents through proportions. My students are ninth graders who are at least two years below grade level in math and have not passed a sixth-grade-level computation proficiency test. After a two-week review unit on ratio, proportion, and percent equivalencies, we began a lesson on the first type of percent problem: What is 15% of 20?

67. Lesson Ideas For Working With Fractions and fifth grade students to be able to convert between fractions, decimals, and percents. you may want to use with our applets in order to teach fractions. http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/elementary/fractions.html

Lesson ideas for working with fractions It is necessary for fourth and fifth grade students to be able to convert between fractions, decimals, and percents. Much of this learning must be done through repetition. Here is a worksheet you may want to use with our applets in order to teach fractions. Give the students time so they may try to solve the problems on the worksheet by themselves. Once the students have had enough time to solve the problems, have them check their fraction to decimal conversion answers using the Fraction Converter applet. Once the students have had time to check their fraction to decimal conversion answers, instruct them to open the Pie Chart applet so they may check their percentage answers. Once the students have opened the pie chart applet, tell them to adjust the applet settings so that the pie chart only has two sections. After all of the settings are correctly adjusted, have the students try to replicate their answers from the worksheet using the two sections. It may be helpful to remind your students the sum of the two sections must equal 100. For example: You would have the students enter 75% as the percentage for one portion of the circle and 25% for the other. Then the students would compare the circle they colored with the one colored by the
