About Percentages
GoConqr OriginalWhat this unit covers
The resources here follow percentages from the basics to money problems. The mind map Changing A Percent To A Fraction walks through dropping the % sign, writing the number over 100 and reducing to lowest terms. The map Percentage compares a ratio method with a decimal method for finding a percentage of an amount.
Further maps cover Percentage Increase/Decrease, Percentage Profit and Loss, Reverse Percentages and Compound Interest. There are also notes on percentage change, error and percent error, and simple and compound interest with depreciation.
Where to start
Begin with conversions. Read the maps on changing a percent to a decimal or a fraction, then try the quiz Convert between fractions, decimals and percentages. The flashcard deck Percentages is a quick way to fix the key steps in your memory.
Moving on to change and interest
Next, open Percentage Increase/Decrease. It uses multipliers: an increase of 13% uses 1.13, so a £120 amount is multiplied by 1.13. Then try the quiz Percent Increase & Decrease to practise the same idea on new numbers.
After that, move to Compound Interest. Its worked example puts £300 in a bank at 4% a year and multiplies by 1.04 for each year. Pair it with the quiz compound interest.
Using maps and quizzes together
- Read a map and note the method it uses.
- Take the matching quiz without looking.
- Go back to the map for any question you missed.
- Use flashcards for terms and short steps.
Teachers can use the quizzes on tax, discounts and original price as ready-made practice for applied problems.
Where it sits
This unit belongs to the Number strand of Mathematics. Many resources mention GCSE Maths, and most are aimed at secondary level. Choose one map and one quiz today, and see what you still need to revisit.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
Start with the mind map Changing A Percent To A Fraction or the Percentage map if you are new to the topic. Then try the quiz Convert between fractions, decimals and percentages to see what you already know. Move to percentage increase and decrease once conversions feel comfortable.
What do the mind maps cover?
The maps cover finding a percentage of an amount, converting between fractions, decimals and percentages, increase and decrease with multipliers, profit and loss, one quantity as a percentage of another, reverse percentages and compound interest. Each one sets out the steps with a short worked example.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource on this page is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself, so styles vary. If one does not suit you, try another on the same topic.
Which exams do these resources suit?
Most of the resources are at secondary level, and the listed material mentions GCSE Maths. They suit school students revising percentages, and teachers can use the quizzes and notes as ready-made practice or revision material.
Is there anything on compound interest?
Yes. There is a Compound Interest mind map with a worked example of £300 earning 4% a year, plus the quiz compound interest and notes on simple interest, compound interest and depreciation. A compound growth and decay map is also listed.
What if I can't find what I need?
Look through the other formats on the page, as a topic may be covered in a flashcard deck or notes rather than a quiz. You can also make your own quiz, mind map or flashcards with a free account, which also saves your quiz scores.
