Students understand percentages through their existing knowledge of fractions and decimals, which they acquired in fifth grade. Students understand percentages as an alternative method for showing parts of a complete unit, building on their existing knowledge of fractions and decimals. Students understand that 50% represents one-half and 0.5 because of this direct relationship. Students learn new concepts more effectively when teachers use their existing knowledge as a foundation.

Students who regularly practice percentages develop their ability to understand numbers and enhance their mental calculation skills. Students who solve these problems repeatedly achieve better results in seventh-grade ratio and proportion assessments. The skills acquired through percent calculations directly apply to pre-algebra content, including percent change problems. Students who practice for 10-15 minutes each day will experience noticeable progress in their calculation speed.
