Fractions, Decimal And Percentages
Resumen
A shop advertises 20 per cent off. A bank offers 4 per cent a year. A report says prices rose by 130 per cent. Three sentences, three completely different pieces of arithmetic, and the marks in this topic go to the candidate who can tell instantly which one is in front of them. Fractions, decimals and percentages are three notations for the same idea, and the fastest route through almost every question here is to convert to whichever of the three makes the calculation shortest.
You will convert freely between the three forms, use each of them as an operator that acts on a quantity, express one quantity as a fraction or a percentage of another even when the answer is greater than 1 or greater than 100 per cent, and handle percentage increase and decrease, simple interest and compound interest. On the Extension Tier you will also convert a recurring decimal into an exact fraction, solve reverse percentage problems where the figure you are given is the answer rather than the start, and use the compound interest formula the specification prints in full.
