Hola and happy Friday troopaloopas 💜💜

I hope you’re all happy and doing things you enjoy. If you enjoyed the maths the other day, try these out for extra challenge.

To find 1% of an amount you need to divide the amount by 100 so if it’s 1% of 380, you would do 380.00 divided by 100. Remember, when we divide by 100, the decimal point moves 2 places to the left so 380.00 divided by 100 becomes 3.8 so –

1% of 380 is 3.8.

If you were asked to find 8% of 380, you would find 1% (which is 3.8) and multiply it by 8 (because we are trying to find 8%).

So the next step is 3.8 x 8. The answer is 30.4.

Have a go if you like.

Sending lots of love, Miss McCue 💜💜
