Fractions, Decimals & Percentages Flashcards

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

Sobre este baralho

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.

Cartões deste baralho

  1. Cartão 1

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

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

  2. Cartão 2

    Pergunta

    What does percent mean?

    Resposta

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

  3. Cartão 3

    Pergunta

    In 0.6, what place does the digit 6 occupy?

    Resposta

    The tenths place. Its value is 6/10.

  4. Cartão 4

    Pergunta

    How do you reduce a fraction to simplest form?

    Resposta

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

  5. Cartão 5

    Pergunta

    Fraction → decimal: which division do you calculate?

    Resposta

    Numerator ÷ denominator. The denominator must be nonzero.

  6. Cartão 6

    Pergunta

    How do you turn a terminating decimal into a fraction?

    Resposta

    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. Cartão 7

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

    Three of the seven equal parts.

  8. Cartão 8

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

    Divide it by 100 and remove the % sign.

  9. Cartão 9

    Pergunta

    Does writing 0.60 instead of 0.6 change the numerical value?

    Resposta

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

  10. Cartão 10

    Pergunta

    What does the mixed number 2 3/5 mean?

    Resposta

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

  11. Cartão 11

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

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

  12. Cartão 12

    Pergunta

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

  13. Cartão 13

    Pergunta

    In 0.47, what is the value of the digit 7?

  14. Cartão 14

    Pergunta

    Percent → fraction: what denominator does % supply?

    Resposta

    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. Cartão 15

    Pergunta

    Resposta

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

  74. Cartão 74

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

    80%. Subtract the discount from 100%.

  75. Cartão 75

    Pergunta

    150% of 40?

    Resposta

    60

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

  76. Cartão 76

    Pergunta

    30 is 15% of what number?

    Resposta

    200

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

    Calculate 0.005 × 600.

  79. Cartão 79

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

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

  80. Cartão 80

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

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

  81. Cartão 81

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

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

  82. Cartão 82

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

    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. Cartão 83

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

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

  84. Cartão 84

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

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

  85. Cartão 85

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

    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. Cartão 86

    Pergunta

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

    Resposta

    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%.
