T3
Find the percent of a quantity
RP.3c
Lesson 1
Introduction
Notes
A percent is a special ratio that means "per one hundred".
It can be written using the percent symbol (%) and converted into fractions or decimals.
Percents are used to express a part of a whole in a way that makes it easy to compare to other percentages.
We recently surveyed students at FMS about Halloween. These are the number of students who responded by grade level.
These are some graphical representations for the question, how many pieces of candy can you eat in one (1) sitting:
From the displays, you can see that 39 sixth graders graders said they could eat more than 30 pieces and 35 seventh graders said they could eat more than 30 pieces.
39 > 35, so these numbers tell use that more 6th graders said they could eat > 30 pieces of candy in one sitting.
But there is a problem...

CYUqs: p151: 1, 2, 3, 4 * Hint: if you get a decimal answer, you know it's incorrect because you can't have a part of a student
p153: 18, 19, 20, 21
You are all going to do some of these. But, there are three things for you to keep in mind. First, do your own. Second, you choose where to start. Third, check your work with the students around you, and if you need help, get help. And if someone needs help, give help.
Check answers to make sure you are understanding:
2. Be sure that your notes are your notes are up to date:
3. Stuck? Choose to persevere: review your thinking, try different approaches, ask for help, search

After completing the Check-your-understanding Questions, which were important for everyone to do?
