This Year 6 Decimals and Percentages Mistake Investigators includes a range of reasoning and problem-solving style questions that are similar to questions children could encounter on their SATs papers. The questions are designed to be answered in groups to promote discussion and development of reasoning skills. The questions cover a range of FDP topics such as associating a fraction with division, multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1,000, as well as finding equivalences between fractions, decimals and percentages.

If you're looking for something that will help your children develop their skills and help them to become more investigative learners, you're in the right place.
