Fractions, Decimals & Percentages Flashcards

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

O tej talii

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. Karta 1

    Pytanie

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

    Odpowiedź

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

  2. Karta 2

    Pytanie

    What does percent mean?

    Odpowiedź

    Per hundred. A percentage compares an amount with 100 equal parts of the reference whole.

  3. Karta 3

    Pytanie

    In 0.6, what place does the digit 6 occupy?

    Odpowiedź

    The tenths place. Its value is 6/10.

  4. Karta 4

    Pytanie

    How do you reduce a fraction to simplest form?

    Odpowiedź

    Divide its numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor. The fraction keeps the same value.

  5. Karta 5

    Pytanie

    Fraction → decimal: which division do you calculate?

    Odpowiedź

    Numerator ÷ denominator. The denominator must be nonzero.

  6. Karta 6

    Pytanie

    How do you turn a terminating decimal into a fraction?

    Odpowiedź

    Use place value: write the digits over 10, 100, 1,000, and so on, then simplify. For example, 0.032 = 32/1,000 = 4/125.

  7. Karta 7

    Pytanie

    In 3/7 of one whole, what does the numerator count?

    Odpowiedź

    Three of the seven equal parts.

  8. Karta 8

    Pytanie

    Percent → decimal: what do you do with the number before %?

    Odpowiedź

    Divide it by 100 and remove the % sign.

  9. Karta 9

    Pytanie

    Does writing 0.60 instead of 0.6 change the numerical value?

    Odpowiedź

    No. Both equal six tenths. A trailing zero after the decimal does not change the value.

  10. Karta 10

    Pytanie

    What does the mixed number 2 3/5 mean?

    Odpowiedź

    2 + 3/5. The space joins a whole-number part and a fractional part; it does not mean multiplication.

  11. Karta 11

    Pytanie

    Fraction → percent: how do you find the number before %?

    Odpowiedź

    Divide the numerator by the denominator, then multiply the result by 100. Attach the % sign to that number.

  12. Karta 12

    Pytanie

    Decimal → percent: how do you find the number before %?

    Odpowiedź

    Multiply the decimal by 100, then attach the % sign.

  14. Karta 14

    Pytanie

    Percent → fraction: what denominator does % supply?

    Odpowiedź

    100

    Put the number before % over 100. If the numerator has a decimal, multiply both parts by the same power of 10 to get integers, then simplify.

  15. Karta 15

    Pytanie

    (part ÷ whole) × 100%. Divide by the whole, not by the part.

  74. Karta 74

    Pytanie

    A 20% discount leaves what percentage of the original price to pay?

  75. Karta 75

    Pytanie

    150% of 40?

    Odpowiedź

    Calculate 1.5 × 40; a percentage above 100% gives more than the original positive amount.

  76. Karta 76

    Pytanie

    30 is 15% of what number?

    Odpowiedź

    200

    Divide the part by the decimal percentage: 30 ÷ 0.15.

    Calculate 0.005 × 600.

  79. Karta 79

    Pytanie

    To convert 2/7 to a decimal, a learner calculates 7 ÷ 2. What must change?

    Odpowiedź

    Use 2 ÷ 7. The numerator is divided by the denominator, in that order.

  80. Karta 80

    Pytanie

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

    Odpowiedź

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

  81. Karta 81

    Pytanie

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

    Odpowiedź

    9/500. Three decimal places give 18/1,000, which simplifies to 9/500.

  82. Karta 82

    Pytanie

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

    Odpowiedź

    100% is one reference whole, and an amount can exceed it. For example, 160% of a positive amount is 1.6 times that amount.

  83. Karta 83

    Pytanie

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

    Odpowiedź

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

  84. Karta 84

    Pytanie

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

    Odpowiedź

    16.7%. Convert the exact fraction first: (1/6) × 100 = 16.666… before attaching %. Round only the final percentage.

  85. Karta 85

    Pytanie

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

    Odpowiedź

    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. Karta 86

    Pytanie

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

    Odpowiedź

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

A circle with its left half shaded teal above the equivalence 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%.
