Fractions, Decimals & Percentages Flashcards

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

O tomto balíčku

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. Kartička 1

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

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

  2. Kartička 2

    Otázka

    What does percent mean?

    Odpoveď

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

  3. Kartička 3

    Otázka

    In 0.6, what place does the digit 6 occupy?

    Odpoveď

    The tenths place. Its value is 6/10.

  4. Kartička 4

    Otázka

    How do you reduce a fraction to simplest form?

    Odpoveď

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

  5. Kartička 5

    Otázka

    Fraction → decimal: which division do you calculate?

    Odpoveď

    Numerator ÷ denominator. The denominator must be nonzero.

  6. Kartička 6

    Otázka

    How do you turn a terminating decimal into a fraction?

    Odpoveď

    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. Kartička 7

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

    Three of the seven equal parts.

    Odpoveď

    Divide it by 100 and remove the % sign.

  9. Kartička 9

    Otázka

    Does writing 0.60 instead of 0.6 change the numerical value?

    Odpoveď

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

  10. Kartička 10

    Otázka

    What does the mixed number 2 3/5 mean?

    Odpoveď

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

  11. Kartička 11

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

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

  12. Kartička 12

    Otázka

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

  14. Kartička 14

    Otázka

    Percent → fraction: what denominator does % supply?

    Odpoveď

    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.

    18

    Calculate 0.12 × 150.

  73. Kartička 73

    Otázka

    How do you find what percentage a part is of a nonzero whole?

    Odpoveď

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

  74. Kartička 74

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

    80%. Subtract the discount from 100%.

  75. Kartička 75

    Otázka

    150% of 40?

    Odpoveď

    60

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

  76. Kartička 76

    Otázka

    30 is 15% of what number?

    Odpoveď

    200

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

    3

    Calculate 0.005 × 600.

  79. Kartička 79

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

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

  80. Kartička 80

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

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

  81. Kartička 81

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

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

  82. Kartička 82

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

    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. Kartička 83

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

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

  84. Kartička 84

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

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

  85. Kartička 85

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

    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. Kartička 86

    Otázka

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

    Odpoveď

    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%.
