Percentages (Very Important, Must Know): Covert Decimal to Percent by: Multiplying by 100 Convert Percent to Decimal by: Divide by 100 Convert Decimal to a Fraction by:
Milli means: one thousand of something 1Liter (L) = 1000mL
1 Yard (Yd.) = 3 Feet (Ft) 12 Foot = 4Yd
1inch = 12 Ft
Less than <
Less or Equal than ≤
Greater than >
Greater or Equal than ≥
Irrational Number: A number that can NOT Be expressed as terminating or repeating decimals.
Rational Numbers: A number that can be expresses as a fraction.
● Example: 1/2
Contextual: Related to surrounding content.
Erroneous: Incorrect Extraneous: Irrelevant Solution: The answer Terminate: To end Percent means: Per 100 Area of a circle: A=π × r^2
Area formula of a Square: A= L × L^2
Area of a rectangle: A= L × W Area of a triangle: A= ½ × b × h ALWAYS REMEMBER:
King Henry Die By Drinking Chocolate Milk
Example of a question that could be on the Test:
● Then multiply 0.096 times 100 to get the percent which = 9.6%
What number is 20% of 8?
● You must multiply 20% × 8 = 160
● 160 divided by 100= 1.6 24 is what % of 250?
● 24 divided by 250 = 0.096
5/8 of my class passed. What percentage of students in my class failed?
● 5 divided by 8 = 62.5
● 100 – 62.5= 37.5 didn’t passed, but you must convert this into a fraction
● The answer will be 3/8 Failed.
When Solving an equation always use PENDAS:
Practice Adding and Subtracting Fractions:
Practice Multiplication and Division Fractions:
Practice Absolute Value Problems:
Percent Decrease:
PD= Original amount – New Amount/ Original Amount × 100
Percent Increase:
PI= New Amount – Original Amount/ New Amount × 100
Proportions:
Problem that could be on the test:
● A store sells two kinds of candles, scented and unscented. The scented burn 1/12 inches in 20 mins. The unscented burns 1/16 inches in 30 mins. Which type of candle burns in 1 Hour and what is its burn rate? 60 Minutes = 1 Hour
Scented Candle
- 20 Minutes in an hour goes 3 Times (20+20+20=60)
- 1/12 *3 = 3/12 – You got to simplify so it will be ¼
Unscented Candle
- 30 Minutes in an hour goes 2 times (30+30=60)
- 1/16 *2 = 2/16 – You got to simplify so it will be 1/8
The answer will be the scented candle burn in 1 hour and its burn rate is ¼
● A worker is paid 2,350 monthly and has $468 withheld from each monthly paycheck. Which of the following is her annual salary?

D. 33,816
is Paid $2350 monthly - $468 withheld each monthly paycheck = $1882 * 12 month = $22584 Annual Salar
You must know this because they will ask you to round decimals up.
