Three sections on fractions, decimals and percentages for Year 6 maths. Pupils find decimal equivalents of fractions like 5/8, complete an equivalence table across all three forms, then apply the skill to a 25% sale and a spelling score of 16 out of 20. Answer key included. Matched to two England National Curriculum objectives.
Number — fractions (including decimals and percentages)
“Associate a fraction with division and calculate decimal fraction equivalents [for example, 0.375] for a simple fraction [for example, 3/8]”
Section 1 is direct practice converting fractions by division.
Number — fractions (including decimals and percentages)
“Recall and use equivalences between simple fractions, decimals and percentages, including in different contexts.”
The table and the real-world section use equivalences both ways.
Pupils calculate decimal equivalents of fractions such as 5/8 and 3/4.
A table with gaps to fill across fractions in simplest form, decimals and percentages.
Applied questions, including what percentage 16 out of 20 is on a spelling test.
