Topic

Fractions

Description

The term Percent represents a fraction with a denominator of 100, showing a proportion out of 100. Examples include 1% = 1/100, 5% = 5/100, and 25% = 25/100. Percentages are a real-world application of fractions and decimals, often used in data analysis, finance, and everyday calculations.

Topic

Fractions

Description

The term Percent Error describes the difference between an estimated value and the actual value, expressed as a percentage of the actual value. The example provided shows an estimated value of 100 versus an actual value of 107, resulting in a percent error of approximately 6.54%. This concept links fractions, percentages, and error analysis, which are important in measurement and data accuracy.

Topic

Fractions

Description

The term Percentage refers to converting fractions and decimals into their equivalent percentages. Examples include 1/2 = 50%, 0.4 = 40%, and 1/3 ≈ 33.3%. This concept connects fractions, decimals, and percentages, emphasizing their equivalence and usage in various contexts.

Topic

Fractions

Description

The term Percentage Decrease refers to the reduction in value expressed as a percentage of the original value. The example shows a decrease from 75 to 50, calculated as (75 - 50) / 75 * 100%, which equals 33.3%. This term applies percentages to real-world contexts like discounts and data analysis, building on fraction concepts.

Topic

Fractions

Description

The term Percentage Increase refers to the increase in value expressed as a percentage of the original value. The example shows an increase from 25 to 40, calculated as (40 - 25) / 25 * 100%, which equals 60%. This term reinforces the application of percentages and fractions in scenarios like profit and growth analysis.
