Today we reviewed how to change back and forth between fractions, decimals, and percents. We discussed repeating decimals and how to convert them to fractions and percents. We used an organizational chart to practice these conversions. Part of our test for this chapter will include a chart similar to this one.
Skills:-express percents as fractions
-express percents as decimals
-express fractions as percents
-express decimals as percents
-express fractions as decimals
-express decimals as fractions
HW:
Complete Percent/Decimal/Fraction Chart (if not finished in class)
