Dear Girls and Boys,
Homework: Read this blog, watch the videos and take notes in your video notebook.
We are moving on with solving percent problems by setting them up as proportions( remember that proportions are similar to equivalent fractions!). On page 122 in your textbook is a handy table that may help you set these problems up. With fractions, you have the whole as denominator and the part as the numerator
- for example: There are 5 parts of the pie and I ate 2.
This would be set up as 2/5.
Part/Whole is how we will be looking at fractions now, as well as the percent will also be written as a fraction - for example: 39% = 39/100. This sounds confusing, but hang on as you will be using these in class practice.
This is Bauer, and he belongs to Jasper. He loves being outside. What a cutie he is.
As always in MATH,
Mrs M
