Free to use · No sign-upFirst identify the quantities in the question. Are you comparing two amounts, finding a part of a whole, or working out how much something changed? Choose the worksheet for that particular task.
Where to start
- Equivalent ratios
Practice scaling both ratio terms by the same factor. Ask what stays constant when both quantities change.
- Fractions, decimals and percentages
Connect equivalent representations using exact hundredths. Explain a familiar value such as 25% = 0.25 = 1/4 before extending the range.
- Percent of a quantity
Find a part of a known whole. Once this direction is secure, use finding-the-whole questions to reverse the relationship.

Open worksheetCheck understanding
25% increase.
The increase is 20 and the original quantity is 80. Calculate 20 ÷ 80 × 100 = 25%. Using the new amount as the base would answer a different comparison.
Teaching notes
On finding-the-whole worksheets, the range controls the hidden whole rather than the displayed part. On percentage-change worksheets, it controls the original amount. The unit-rate sheet uses whole-dollar costs per item; it is a focused division task for finding a price per item.
