Previously Published Data 

1.) Students will work in groups of four focusing on one of the following categories: parts out of 100, written in words, decimals, or fractions. When a percent is written on the board or overhead projector, students in the group will write and show their answers to each other, and all will raise their cards for the other groups to see only after the group has reached consensus. They can help correct each other if any answers are wrong. After 3 or 4 times, groups will trade category cards and repeat with different percents. Eventually, they'll get practice with each category. Next, students will work individually with a percent and will write the equivalents in this manner: 75% = 75 parts out of 100 = 75 hundredths = 75/100 = .75 

2.) Students will complete a table listing the fraction, decimal and percent of given values 
3.) Students will take percents of numbers: 20% of 45 3% of 50 10% of 340 100% of 36 
4.) Students will solve the following: There were 24 questions on the test. Jerry got 80% of the problems right. How many problems did Jerry solve correctly? 
Previously Published Data 

1.) Students will name the decimal and the percent for the fraction 4/5. 

2.) Students will name the decimal and the percent for the fraction 7/8. 
3.) Students will name the fraction and the decimal for 60%. 
4.) Students will name the percent and fraction for the decimal .33. 
5.) Students will solve the following problem: If Mark buys something for $12.95, but he also has to pay 8% sales tax, how much tax will he have to pay? What will be the total amount he'll have to pay?
