5 Tips for End-of-Year Success
Help your child finish the school year strong in math with simple steps to build confidence and prevent learning loss.
“Special percents” are easy to compute because they represent easy-to-calculate amounts.
0% means “none of it”
25% means “a quarter of it”
50% means “half of it”
100% means “all of it”
200% means “all of it, twice”
To find 100% of 30 we take “all of it”. All of 30 is 30 and so
100% of 30 is 30.
To find 200% of 30 we take “all of it, twice”. All of 30 is 30, and double of 30 is 60. So,
200% of 30 is 60.
