Get your class thinking deeper about equivalent FDP with this Year 5 Equivalent Fractions, Decimals and Percentages Discussion Problem. This resource features two 'meaty' questions that are designed to get children talking about their answers and how they arrived at them. Best used in pairs or groups, this worksheet encourages pupils to collaborate and discuss in order to find the most efficient methods of working out. An answer page that includes an example answer for each question has been included with this resource, but we anticipate that other answers will be found. Let children mark their own work, or that of their partner, to encourage even more discussion and self-correction.
