Let’s Compare Fractions, Decimals, and Percentages

Do your students understand the relationship between decimals, fractions, and percentages? Are they in need of additional practice when it comes to comparing these values? Teach Starter has created a worksheet for you to use with your students when working on this skill in your math class.

With this worksheet, students will compare a variety of fractions, decimals, and percentages. In order to compare accurately, students must convert one value to another, so that the comparison can be made. This can be achieved by converting a fraction to a decimal, a decimal to a percentage, a percentage to a decimal, etc. Students also will have practice comparing percentages at the bottom of this worksheet.

An answer key is included with your download to make grading fast and easy! 

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

In addition to independent student work time, use this worksheet as an activity for:

• Guided math groups
• Lesson warm-up
• Lesson wrap-up
• Fast finishers 
• Homework assignment
• Whole-class review (via smartboard)

If there are students who need an additional challenge, encourage them to create a list on the back of their worksheet that shows an equivalent fraction, decimal, and percentage.

For students who need additional support, invite them to reference previous assignments, posters, or anchor charts. Additionally, this activity can be completed in a 1-on-1 setting or with a small group of students.
