100% is one whole. More than 100% means more than one whole; less than 1% is a tiny sliver. To handle these you read place value and slide the decimal by 10s and 100s. Warm those up first.

1. 100% of something meansβ¦
2. What is 3 Γ 100?
3. What is 5 Γ· 100?
100% = one whole. A percent over 100 is more than a whole; a percent under 1 is a sliver. To turn a percent into a decimal, divide by 100 (slide the dot 2 places left).
Your quick check picks one for you, but you can switch any time:
Level 0 Warm up wholes and place value.
A. 100% of a pizza means how many whole pizzas?
100% is one whole.
B. What is 2 Γ 100?
2 hundreds = 200.
C. What is 1 Γ· 100?
Dividing by 100 slides the dot 2 places left: 1 β 0.01.
Level 1 Read big and small percents.
A. Which percent is MORE than one whole?
100% is one whole, so 150% is more than one whole.
B. Write 200% as a number of wholes.
200 Γ· 100 = 2 wholes.
C. Which percent is the SMALLEST?
0.5% is less than 1% β the tiniest of these.
Level 2 Stretch into decimals.
A. Write 150% as a decimal.
150 Γ· 100 = 1.5.
B. Write 0.5% as a decimal.
0.5 Γ· 100 = 0.005.
1. Which percent means MORE than one whole?
Anything above 100% is more than one whole; 300% = 3 wholes.
2. What is 4 Γ 100?
4 hundreds = 400.
