Fractions, Decimals & Percentages Flashcards

86 flashcards on fraction, decimal and percent conversions, exact and rounded equivalents, mixed-value comparisons, and common mistakes.

Par šo kavu

Practice 86 English flashcards on fractions, decimals, and percentages. Build fluent recall of common equivalents, then use that knowledge to compare values, calculate short percentage problems, and spot conversion mistakes.

The cards teach all six conversion procedures: fraction to decimal, fraction to percentage, decimal to fraction, decimal to percentage, percentage to fraction, and percentage to decimal. Fifteen familiar proper fractions have a decimal or percentage prompt plus a separate recall prompt that returns to the fraction from one of those forms. The set adds mixed numbers, values above one, percentages below 1% and above 100%, and selected repeating-decimal equivalents. Exact answers and rounded answers are distinguished, with the required precision stated on each rounding prompt.

Comparisons ask you to choose the larger value, recognize equality, or order three mixed representations. Short applications practice percentage of an amount, part as a percentage of a whole, recovering a whole from a known percentage, and the percentage left after a discount. Error cards check division direction, place value, simplification, percentage notation, premature rounding, and the reference whole.

Learn the notation and conversion methods first. Familiar equivalents come next, with related prompts separated, followed by extended conversions, comparisons, and applications. Say or write the answer before turning the card, then work fresh problems outside the deck. Each card has one short retrieval task and an answer with brief reasoning.

This is focused foundational practice for secondary-school and adult learners. It does not include every possible direction for every number: selected reverse prompts give useful retrieval practice without a full permutation table. Negative-number ordering, full fraction arithmetic, recurring-decimal algebra, ratio and unit conversions, dosage calculations, and long multistep exercises are outside its scope. It is not a complete course or exam preparation program.

Questions, answers, examples, sequence, and metadata were independently authored with AI assistance. Arithmetic was checked directly; general definitions were cross-checked against freely available decimal, percentage, and repeating-decimal references. No textbook, examination, or competitor-deck wording or diagrams were copied. Mathematical facts are common knowledge. The original text and generated cover are released under CC0 1.0 to the extent applicable rights exist. This is an independent resource, unaffiliated with any school or examination provider.

  1. 1. kartīte

    Jautājums

    In a fraction of one whole, what does the denominator count?

    Atbilde

    The equal parts that make one whole. In 3/7, the whole is divided into seven equal parts.

  2. 2. kartīte

    Jautājums

  4. 4. kartīte

    Jautājums

    How do you reduce a fraction to simplest form?

  80. 80. kartīte

    Jautājums

    A learner writes 0.42 = 0.42%. What is the correct percentage?

    Atbilde

    42%. Multiply the decimal by 100 before adding %; 0.42% would equal 0.0042.

  81. 81. kartīte

    Jautājums

    A learner writes 0.018 = 18/100. What is the correct simplest fraction?

  82. 82. kartīte

    Jautājums

    Why is “a percentage cannot exceed 100%” incorrect?

  83. 83. kartīte

    Jautājums

    A learner reduces 12/20 to 6/20. What is the correct simplest fraction?

    3/5. Divide both numerator and denominator by 4. Changing only the numerator changes the value.

  84. 84. kartīte

    Jautājums

    A learner rounds 1/6 to 0.17 before converting to percent. What is 1/6 as a percentage to one decimal place?

  85. 85. kartīte

    Jautājums

    For the same whole, why is 1/9 smaller than 1/6?

    Atbilde

    Nine equal parts make each part smaller than six equal parts. With the same positive numerator, a larger positive denominator gives a smaller fraction.

  86. 86. kartīte

    Jautājums

    Why can 10% of 80 and 10% of 200 be different amounts?

    Atbilde

    The reference whole is different. They are 8 and 20 respectively, even though the percentage is the same.
