How to teach this

First label the whole, part, and percent, then mark which one is missing. Make 10% the home base when finding a part. For a missing whole or percent, write the relationship before undoing the multiplication.

Watch for: Kids treat 25% of 60 as 25 × 60 or 60 − 25. Percent means out of 100, so 25% is 25 hundredths of the number. Kids attach a % sign to every answer. Use it only when the unknown is the percent: 25% of 60 is 15, but 15 is 25% of 60.
