Use this Year 5 Fractions as Percentages and Decimals (Other Denominators) Reasoning and Problem Solving resource to support your class as they expand their knowledge of the relationship between fractions, percentages and decimals.

The first two questions are reasoning style and ask children to check whether a statement is correct then explain their ideas. This will get them using mathematical language accurately. The third question is problem solving and will get them using all three expressions together to find multiple answers.

Each question has two similar parts to promote confidence and there is an answer sheet included to enable easy marking for both teachers and children marking their own work.

A varied fluency resource is also available for this small step.
