Pbs: Explore the Relationship Among Fractions, Decimal Notation, and Percents

Curated by ACT

In this Cyberchase media gallery, a series of videos explores the relationships among fractions, decimals, and percents, which can be used to represent the same values in different ways. In the accompanying classroom activity, students shade in parts of squares and rectangles drawn on a piece of graph paper and express the shaded amount in the form of a fraction, a decimal, and a percent.
