Convert a Percent to a Decimal or a Fraction

Do your year 6 students need additional practice writing percentages as decimals or fractions? This critical maths skill is typically introduced in Year 6 and has many real-world applications. We use percents, decimals, and fractions when calculating discounts, interest of bank accounts and loans and much more. Teach Starter has created a worksheet that your students can use to sharpen their skills of writing a percent as a decimal or a fraction.

Students will answer 10 questions asking them to convert a percentage to a decimal and then a percentage to a fraction. There are two word problems that put this skill into practice.

An answer page is included with your download to make marking fast and easy! 

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

In addition to independent student work time, use this worksheet as an activity for:

  • Guided maths groups 
  • Lesson warm-up
  • Lesson wrap-up
  • Fast finishers 
  • Homework assignment
  • Whole-class review (via smartboard)

If there are students who are early finishers, encourage them to create a list of when percentages are used in their daily lives.

For students who need additional support, encourage them to reference a poster or anchor chart to help convert from fraction to decimal to percent.
