Model the parts: This model shows the parts of an explanation. It does not answer your writing question.

Claim: 150% is more than one whole, and 0.5% is a tiny piece smaller than 1%.

Evidence: Students explain 150% is more than one whole (the player beat the goal) and 0.5% is far less than one whole (a tiny boost), connecting to the idea of 100% as the whole.

Reasoning: This evidence connects the definition of percent to the mathematical claim.
