Decimals

These pages teach operations on decimals covered in K8 math courses. Each page has an explanation, interactive practice and challenge games about decimals.

Decimals
Information, graphics and quizzes on the basic concepts of decimal numbers. Decimal numbers are important to study as they are the basis of our money or monetary system and our system of scientific measure. It is also an area of infinite possibilities from the smallest to greatest numbers.

Hot Subjects: Decimals

Percentages

Hot Subjects: Percents
Percent means "out of 100." We can use the percent symbol (%) as a handy way to write a fraction with a common denominator of 100. For example, instead of saying "8 out of every 100 professional basketball players are female," we can say "8% of professional basketball players are female."
