Teacher reads problem #1. Students read problem #2.
Students, you already know that place value tells you the
value of decimal numbers. Today, we will use our
knowledge of the place value of decimal numbers to show
them as percents.
5th Grade Number Sense 1.2 (5Q)
Interpret percents as a part of a hundred; find decimal and percent
equivalents for common fractions and explain why they represent the same
value; compute a given percent of a whole number.
Lesson to be used by EDI-trained teachers only.
Concept Development
A percent (%) is a special way of writing fractions with a denominator of 100.
 The root word “cent” means hundred.
“Cent” in everyday words.
 Percent means “per hundred” or “out of 100.”
A century is 100 years.
Example:
There are 100 cents in a dollar.
There are 100 centimeters in a meter.

A decimal number represents a whole number and part of a whole number
separated by a decimal point .
 Numbers can be represented with decimal numbers, words, fractions, and percents.
 We often think about decimal numbers and percents in terms of parts of a dollar.
