Build understanding of how to find percentages (that are multiples of 5% and 10%) of an amount by using this resource.
This Year 6 Percentage of an Amount (Multiples of 5% and 10%) Reasoning and Problem Solving worksheet will support children with using division knowledge to find these multiples quickly, such as finding 10% by dividing by 10 and then using that to find other percentages. Children will reason if amounts total more than a percentage of an amount in a real-life context, problem solve percentages that can be found from a given number and find mistakes in how other children have calculated percentages. All answers are supplied for ease of marking!
A varied fluency resource and a fluency matrix are also available for this small step.
