Fractions, Decimals & Percentages Flashcards

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

O tem kompletu

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. Kartica 1

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

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

  2. Kartica 2

    Vprašanje

    What does percent mean?

    Odgovor

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

  3. Kartica 3

    Vprašanje

    In 0.6, what place does the digit 6 occupy?

    Odgovor

    The tenths place. Its value is 6/10.

  4. Kartica 4

    Vprašanje

    How do you reduce a fraction to simplest form?

    Odgovor

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

  5. Kartica 5

    Vprašanje

    Fraction → decimal: which division do you calculate?

    Odgovor

    Numerator ÷ denominator. The denominator must be nonzero.

  6. Kartica 6

    Vprašanje

    How do you turn a terminating decimal into a fraction?

    Odgovor

    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. Kartica 7

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

    Three of the seven equal parts.

  8. Kartica 8

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

    Divide it by 100 and remove the % sign.

  9. Kartica 9

    Vprašanje

    Does writing 0.60 instead of 0.6 change the numerical value?

    Odgovor

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

  10. Kartica 10

    Vprašanje

    What does the mixed number 2 3/5 mean?

    Odgovor

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

  11. Kartica 11

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

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

  12. Kartica 12

    Vprašanje

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

  14. Kartica 14

    Vprašanje

    Percent → fraction: what denominator does % supply?

    Odgovor

    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. Kartica 15

    Vprašanje

  56. Kartica 56

    Vprašanje

    0.333… (3 repeats forever) as a fraction in simplest form?

    Odgovor

    333/1,000. It ends after three decimal places and is not exactly 1/3.

  61. Kartica 61

    Vprašanje

    How can you compare a fraction, a decimal, and a percentage on one scale?

    Odgovor

    Odgovor

    7/20. It equals 0.35, while 34% equals 0.34.

  63. Kartica 63

    Vprašanje

    Vprašanje

    Order from smallest to largest: 0.58, 3/5, 59%.

    17/20. It equals 0.85, which is greater than 0.84.

  71. Kartica 71

    Vprašanje

    How do you calculate p% of an amount A?

    Odgovor

    (p ÷ 100) × A. First convert the percentage to a decimal multiplier.

  72. Kartica 72

    Vprašanje

    12% of 150?

    Odgovor

    18

    Calculate 0.12 × 150.

  73. Kartica 73

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

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

  74. Kartica 74

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

    80%. Subtract the discount from 100%.

  75. Kartica 75

    Vprašanje

    150% of 40?

    Odgovor

    60

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

  76. Kartica 76

    Vprašanje

    30 is 15% of what number?

    Odgovor

    200

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

  77. Kartica 77

    Vprašanje

    18 out of 72 is what percentage?

    Odgovor

    Odgovor

    3

    Calculate 0.005 × 600.

  79. Kartica 79

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

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

  80. Kartica 80

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

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

  81. Kartica 81

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

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

  82. Kartica 82

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

    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. Kartica 83

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

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

  84. Kartica 84

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

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

  85. Kartica 85

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

    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. Kartica 86

    Vprašanje

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

    Odgovor

    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%.
