Now that we've finished our unit on data, we're moving on to percents. For this unit, we'll be looking at:
-percents smaller than 1 and larger than 100
-converting percentages into fractions and decimals and vice versa
-calculating the percent of a number
-combining percents.
I found some practice questions and an explanation of large and small percents at this website:

Check out this game that matches up the percent, decimal and fractions that show the same value: http://www.mathplayground.com/Decention/Decention.html
