Integrates 3 ways of understanding percents: proportions, rates, and percent equations. In a percent equation, "45% of x" is translated into (0.45)(x). Lessons 2.1-2.4 are prerequisite. This lesson requires students to make connections between all the different was of representing percent questions. Making connections leads to deeper understanding and better retention. A mix of whole-class and small-group instruction.
