Solving problems involving fractions, decimals, and percent LESSON 2
OBJECTIVES Give real-life situations involving fractions, decimals, and percent. Identify the base, portion, and rate in a given problem Solve problems involving fractions Solve problems involving decimals, and Solve problems involving percent
Divide the numerator by the denominator Determine the place value of the last digit of the decimal. Copy the digits of the decimal as the numerator and write the place value of the last digit as the denominator of the fraction. Simplify the fraction into its lowest or simplest form (if applicable) Express 3/5 as a decimal Divide 3 by 5 Express 0.75 to fraction. Hundredths (1/100) 75/100 3. 75/100 *divide by 25 to simplify Answer: 0.6 Answer: = ¾ Fraction to Decimal Decimal to Fraction
1. Move the decimal point 2 places to the right and affix the percent sign % Move the decimal point 2 places to the left and remove the percent sign % Express 0.52 in percent form 0.52 = 52% Express 28% to decimal. 28% = 0.28 Answer: 52% Answer: 0.28 Percent to Decimal Decimal to Percent
Express the fraction to decimal Express the resulting decimal to percent. Express the percentage to decimal. Express the resulting decimal to fraction. Convert ¼ to percent % Express 50% to fraction. 50% = 0.50 = 50/100 Answer: ¼ = 0.25 = 25% Answer: 5/10 = ½ Percent to Fraction Fraction to Percent
Important terms to understand Base (B) – refers to the total amount, original amount or the whole part. Portion (P) – refers to the part or partial amount of the base. Rate (R) – refers to the quantity or amount or measure of the portion to the base. This is usually written in percent, but it may also be a decimal or fraction.
Identify the base, portion and rate Mauricio bought half a kilo of coconut oil from a nearby store. Since a kilo of coconut oil costs P68.00, he paid P34.00 Identify the base, portion and rate. B = P68 ( it is the cost of a kilo of coconut oil). P = P34 (it is the only amount that Mauricio has paid. R = ½ (since he only bought half a kilo of coconut).
Identify the base, portion and rate In a department store in certain mall in General Santos City, Sarah has seen a jacket which costs P1,099 with 15% discount. Now, since the jacket is on sale, its new price is P934.15. B = P1,099 – original cost of the product P = P934 – new price for the jacket R = 15% - % or discount ; portion of the base
Identify the base, portion and rate Because of the social distancing protocol, the number of passengers that can ride in a tricycle was cut into half. Before, it can accommodate 6 passengers. But now it can accommodate only 3. B = 6 – original number of passengers that can ride P = 3 – new number of passengers that can ride R = ½ - percent of new passengers that can ride
Identify the base, portion and rate If Marina earns P25,000 monthly and always saves 20% of it, then she saves P5000 in a month. Base = P25,000 – total earnings in a month Portion = P5000 – savings as portion left from the salary Rate = 20% - percent of savings from the salary
The three forms of portion formula To solve for the base , use the formula: Example: Base = = 25,000 Base = = 1,666.67 5000 0.20 ____ 0.30 ____ 500
To solve for Portion , use the formula: The three forms of portion formula Portion = 0.20 x 25,000 = 5,000 Portion = 0.35 x 60,000 = 21,000
The three forms of portion formula To solve for Rate , use the formula: Rate = 5,000 _____ 25,000 = 0.20 or 20% Rate = 18,000 ___ 120,000 = 0.15 or 15%
Let’s Practice! Before the lockdown, a certain restaurant in a mall in General Santos City has an average daily income of P120,000. However, due to the lockdown, its average daily income dropped to P20,000 which is only 1/6 of its regular daily income. Base Rate Portion
