Let's go back to that
pizza that's cut into 100 pieces... With fractions, the
whole pizza would be all 100
pieces:
So, the
whole thing would be 100%!
| What if you
had |
|
pizzas? |
What percent would
that be?
Cut each pizza into
100 pieces...
That's
350 pieces... So,
that's 350%!
Sometimes, you'll hear
someone, like a coach, say, "I want you to give 110% out
there!"
If you tried your
hardest, that would be your whole effort, right?
So, that would be 100% of your effort. Doing more
than that would be impossible. But, that's just
their way of saying that they want you to try harder
that you ever have before.
In the next lessons,
I'll show you how to bounce back and forth between
percents, fractions and decimals. It's pretty
simple stuff and you'll soon be a pro.
