Specific Content Area Interventions – Percents (Unit IV)

Abstract

In preparation for algebra, obviously students need to know what a percentreally is, which put simply, is a ratio of parts out of a 100. In addition, students need to be able to convert a percent to a decimal and fraction and, at a minimum; students should be able to find the percent of a number. When it comes to converting percents to decimals/fraction, quite frankly there are some common ones that all students should know by memory.
