Fill in each box below with an example of the process described. Slide 6 / 157 Ordering Order the numbers from least to greatest % % to a fraction % to a decimal fraction to a % decimal to a % In order to do this, they must all be in the same form. Let's turn them all into percents: 15% 12.5% 16% 9.5% So least to greatest: 9.5% 12.5% 15% 16% % 0.15

4 Slide 19 / 157 Slide 20 / Express as a percent. Three Types of Percent Problems Return to table of contents Slide 21 / 157 Types of Percent Problems Remember, percents are "parts of a whole". The part is the numerator and the whole is the denominator. 17% means 17 parts per 100 or We are going to solve problems involving percents. There are 3 types of problems: 1. Find the part What number is 54% of 34? 2. Find the whole 4 is 60% of what number? 3. Find the percent 18 is what percent of 28? Slide 22 / 157 Two words that will occur in these types of problems are: "is" "of" These words have specific meanings in math. "Is" means equals (=) "Of" means multiply Types of Percent Problems To solve a percent problem, translate the words into an equation. Change the following: 1. Percent into a decimal 2. "is" to "=" 3. "of" to " " 4. Unknown to "x" Then, solve the equation. Slide 23 / 157 Slide 24 / 157 Find the Part Finding the Part... Examples: Find 40% of = 24 Click Write a mathematical sentence 20% of = 18 Click Write a mathematical sentence

Percent of Change It is an increase when the new amount is larger than the original and a decrease when the new amount is smaller than the original. To find the percent of change, use the following proportion: Percent of change: Amount of increase or decrease = % Original Amount 100 Return to table of contents

12 Slide 67 / 157 Percent of Change Find the percent of change (be sure to label your answer as an increase or decrease). Examples: Original amount: 20 Original amount: 40 New amount: 30 New amount: 10 Slide 68 / 157 Identify the percent of change as an increase or decrease. Then find the percent of change. 1. Original: 45 New: 75 Percent of Change Percent of change= Percent of change= 2. Original: 100 New: Original: 58 New: 75 Slide 69 / 157 Percent of Change Slide 70 / 157 Percent of Change Try This! A CD's original price was $ It is now on sale for $ What is the percent of change? Try This! A student's first test grade was 60. The second test grade was an 85. What was the percent of change? Slide 71 / In 2005, the price of a McDonald's hamburger was $0.89. In 2010, the price of a McDonald's hamburger was $1.19. What was the percent of change?

Representing Percent Equations Algebraically Return to table of contents

14 Slide 79 / 157 Representing Percent Equations Algebraically You have already begun translating percent problems into equations. Remember... To solve a percent problem, translate the words into an equation. Change: 1. Percent into a decimal 2. "is" to "=" 3. "of" to " " 4. Unknown to "x" Then, solve the equation. 100% + 5% = 105% Slide 80 / 157 Think about this... What does that equation look like in decimal form? = 1.05 So, if you increase the price of a shirt 5%, the new price is 105% of the original price. To represent that algebraically, you would write it this way: Let s = the original price of the shirt 1s s = 1.05s Example: Slide 81 / 157 Representing Percent Equations Algebraically You sell a shirt for $ This price represents a 5% increase from the price you paid for the shirt. How much did it cost you to purchase the shirt? Let s = the original price of the shirt 1s s = s = s = $14.76 The shirt cost you $ Example: Slide 82 / 157 Representing Percent Equations Algebraically The population of your school decreased by 13% from last year to this year. If there are 957 students in the school this year, how many were there last year? 2 students solved this differently. Who is correct? Why? Is one method easier than the other? Student 1: Student 2: 100% - 13% = 87% 1n -.13n = % of what is 957? 0.87n = n = 957 n = 1,100 students n = 1,100 students Slide 83 / 157 Representing Percent Equations Algebraically So, what does this mean? m m = 1.15m This could mean increase m by 15% or multiply m by Slide 84 / 157 Representing Percent Equations Algebraically You Try. 1. A smart phone is on sale for $299, or 18% off. What was the original price of the phone? Write and solve an equation to represent this situation. They mean the same thing! Likewise, what is the meaning of w w = 0.58w Click 2. What does this equation mean? p p = 1.02p 3. What does this equation mean? h - 0.1h = 0.9h This means both decrease w by 42% or multiply w by Click

15 Slide 85 / 157 Slide 86 / Write an equation to represent the problem, then solve. Be prepared to show your equation! When you go shopping, you must pay an additional 6% in sales tax. What is the price of your items before taxes if your final price is $25? 46 Choose the equation that represents the situation. The population of a town increased by 1%. A x x = 1.01x B x + 0.1x = 1.1x C x - 0.1x = 0.9x D x x = 0.99x Slide 87 / Write an equation to represent the problem, then solve. Be prepared to show your equation! The number of students in your class has decreased by 12% since September. How many students were there at the start if there are currently 19 students? Slide 88 / Choose the equation that represents the situation. A 15% discount. A x x = 0.85x B x + 1.5x = 2.5x C x x = 0.985x D x x = 0.85x Slide 89 / Write an equation to represent the problem, then solve. Be prepared to show your equation! When you paid your bill at a restaurant, you included 24% more to cover tax and tip. If you paid $55.80, what was the amount of the original bill? Slide 90 / 157 Simple Interest Formula Larry invests $100 in a savings plan. The plan pays 4.5% interest each year on his $100 account balance.

( Applied Percent of Decrease Return to table of contents Slide 99 / 157 Applied Percent of Decrease There are situations when the percent of change is going to be a decrease. Examples are: Discounts Sales Reduction in Population Slide 100 / 157 Applied Percent of Decrease When finding a discount, there are two different methods you can use. Method 1 : Find the percent of the original price (discounted amount in $) Subtract the discount from the original price.

20 Slide 115 / 157 Applied Percent of Increase 60 Increase 36 by 25%. Slide 116 / 157 Find the new amount Increase 60 by 10% Increase 68 by 12% 61 Increase 40 by 15% Slide 117 / 157 Slide 118 / 157 Tip Tip: An amount added to a bill for services provided. Customers traditionally tip 18-20% for good service in restaurants and salons. Example: If the restaurant bill is $45 and you want to leave a 20% tip, how much money should you leave? (45) = 54 or 45(1.20) = 54 The customer will leave $54 on the table. The waitress will receive a $9 tip and the restaurant will receive $45. To calculate the amount of the tip only:.20(45) = 9 Calculate a 20% tip on a $75 bill. Slide 119 / 157 Tip What will the customer leave in total? For poor service, my friend will leave a 5% tip. How much less will this waitress earn than the waitress above? Slide 120 / 157 Sales Tax Sales tax : An amount of money that is calculated by applying a percentage rate to the taxable price of a sale. Sales taxes are collected by the buyer from the seller, who turns it over to the government. In NJ the sales tax rate is 7%. To calculate Sales Tax alone find the percent (tax) of the price. That is the amount that you owe in addition to the cost of the item. To find the total cost of an item, you must add the sales tax to the cost. There are 2 ways to do this: 1. Find the percent of the item and add it to the original amount. 2. Find 100% + tax% of the original amount.
