About this worksheet
Percent means "out of a hundred". To find 25% of 80, multiply 80 by 25 and divide by 100, or simply take a quarter. These sheets ask for a percentage of a number and always give whole number answers.
Tips for parents and teachers
- Learn the easy ones as fractions: 50% is half, 25% is a quarter, 10% is one tenth, 20% is one fifth.
- Build others from 10%: 30% is three times 10%; 5% is half of 10%.
- Link it to shop discounts and exam marks; children meet both every week.
