PERCENTAGE INCREASE DECREASE WALT calculate the percentage increase

PERCENTAGE INCREASE & DECREASE WALT - calculate the percentage increase and percentage decrease of a number. - apply percentage increase and decrease to a variety of questions.

RECAP • Over the past two weeks we have been learning about percentages, in particular finding percentages of amounts. • You learned how to find 50%, 25%, 75%, 10% and multiples of 10% of an amount during week one of percentages. • During week two, you learned how to find 1% & 5% of an amount. • An ability to combine these skills means that you are now able to find any % of any amount. Or, at the very least, you are becoming much more confident doing so.

A QUICK TESTER TO RECAP PERCENTAGES SO FAR… • Find 50% of 120 = • Find 25% of 80 = • Find 75% of 120 = • Find 10% of 70 = • Find 20% of 90 = • Find 1% of 300 = • Find 5 % of 200 =

A QUICK TESTER TO RECAP PERCENTAGES SO FAR… • Find 50% of 120 = 60 – to find 50% of a number, you halve it or divide it by 2. • Find 25% of 80 = 20 – to find 25% of a number you halve it and halve it again OR divide it by 4. • Find 75% of 120 = 90 – to find 75% of a number you find 25% first and then multiply it by 3. • Find 10% of 70 = 7 – to find 10% of a number you divide it by 10. • Find 20% of 90 = 18 – to find any multiple of 10 you must divide by 10 and then multiple. • Find 1% of 300 = 3 – to find 1% of a number you divide by 100 (you can use a grid to help with this) • Find 5 % of 200 = 10 – to find 5% you can find 10% and halve your answer OR find 1% and multiply it by 5.

Percentage increase: increasing a number by a percentage. How do I do it? Step 1: Find the percentage of the amount/number Step 2: Add the percentage to the original amount/number e. g. Increase 30 by 20% Step 1: 10% of 30 is 3 So, 20% of 30 is 6 Step 2: 30 + 6 = 36 So 30 increased by 20% is 36

Example 2 A packet of crisps normally weighs 125 g. The packet is increased in weight by 20%. What is the new weight of the packet of crisps? Step 1 10% of 125 is 12. 5 so, 20% is 25 Step 2 125 + 25 = 150 So the packet of crisps now weighs 150 g! 20% extra free crisps…nice!

YOUR TURN • A packet of biscuits normally weighs 150 g. The packet is increased in weight by 20%. What is the new weight of the packet of biscuits?

YOUR TURN • A packet of biscuits normally weighs 150 g. The packet is increased in weight by 20%. What is the new weight of the packet of biscuits? • Step 1: find the % of the amount • Step 2: add the % to the original number Example: 20% of 150 g • 10% of 150 = 15 • 20% of 150 = 30 • Therefore the new weight of the packet of biscuits is 150 + 30 = 180 g

Percentage Decrease What is Percentage Decrease? Percentage Decrease is when you make a number smaller by taking away a given percentage of it. We often see Percentage Decrease in real life in terms of items in a sale or using a discount card.

PERCENTAGE DECREASE: DECREASING A NUMBER BY A PERCENTAGE. HOW DO IT? • Step 1 – find the percentage of the number • Step 2 – takeaway the percentage from the original number. Example: Decrease 50 by 30% • Step 1 – 10% of 50 = 5. So, 30% of 50 = 15 • Step 2 – 50 -15 = 35 • Therefore 50 decreased by 30% = 35

Example 2 There is a pair of trainers in the sale. There were originally £ 60. They have 20% off. How much do I pay for them? Step 1 10% of £ 60 is £ 6 so, 20% is £ 12 Step 2 £ 60 - £ 12 = £ 48 So the trainers are now £ 48

YOUR TURN… There are some designer sunglasses in a sale with 45% off. They were £ 190 before the sale. How much are they now? Step 1: 10% is £ 19 → 40% is £ 76 5% is £ 9. 50 So 45% is £ 85. 50 Step 2: £ 190 - £ 85. 50 = £ 104. 50

TRY THESE • Mild: 1. Decrease £ 60 by 10% 2. Decrease 300 g by 20% 3. Decrease 400 g by 50% • Spicy: 1. Decrease £ 500 by 10% 2. Decrease 90 g by 25% 3. Decrease 320 g by 15% • 1. 2. 3. Hot: Decrease £ 650 by 15% Decrease 400 g by 40% Decrease £ 140. 50 by 20%

ANSWER • Mild: 1. £ 54 2. 240 g 3. 200 g • Spicy: 1. £ 450 2. 67. 5 g 3. 272 g • 1. 2. 3. Hot: £ 552. 50 240 g £ 112. 40
