This Self-Learning Module (SLM) is prepared so that you, our dear learners, can continue your studies and learn while at home. Activities, questions, directions, exercises, and discussions are carefully stated for you to understand each lesson.
Each SLM is composed of different parts. Each part shall guide you step-by-step as you discover and understand the lesson prepared for you.
Pre-tests are provided to measure your prior knowledge on lessons in each SLM. This will tell you if you need to proceed on completing this module or if you need to ask your facilitator or your teacher’s assistance for better understanding of the lesson. At the end of each module, you need to answer the post-test to self-check your learning. Answer keys are provided for each activity and test. We trust that you will be honest in using these.
Please use this module with care. Do not put unnecessary marks on any part of this SLM. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises and tests. And read the instructions carefully before performing each task.
Hi, Mathletes! In this module, you will gain an understanding of percent and its relationship to fractions, ratios, and decimal numbers using models. In forming a fraction using a model, remember that the shaded part is the numerator, and the total number of equal parts is the denominator. A fraction can be also written in colon form to make it a ratio.
At the end of this module, you are expected to:
1. visualize percent and its relationship to fractions, ratios, and decimal numbers using models;
2. write percent in decimal numbers, ratios, and fractions; and
3. appreciate the relationship of percent to decimal, ratio, and fractions.
