Fundamentals Vol 1
The activities in this book have been designed to give students a clear understanding of what fractions, decimals and percentages are.
The best way for teachers to make use of the pages here is to work through the sheets with the students, encouraging questions as you go. This is especially important in this volume; if worked through slowly and carefully students will come to know and understand these very important but curious abstractions of maths. With new insights and skills comes confidence and a readiness to tackle more challenging examples.
As exercises in this book are very basic it was decided to include answers at the back for only selected questions, those calling on higher processing skills.
Ideal for school libraries, classroom teachers and relief teachers.
Some of what your students will learn:
•    What fractions are
•    What decimals are
•    What percentages are
•    1/1 = 2/2 = 100/100 ..... = 1
•    1 = 1.0 = 100%
•    1/2 = 2/4 = 4/8 ......
•    1/2 = 0.5 = 50%
•    1/10 = 0.1 = 10%
•    1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
•    3/4 = 0.75 = 75%
