Equivalent Fractions, Decimals, and Percents Practice
By Christine C.
A conversion practice worksheet for 6th graders built around a three-row table where students fill in equivalent fractions, decimals, and percents for common benchmark values like 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 1/10. It builds fluency in moving fluidly among the three forms of the same number, and the partially completed table gives students a clear model to work from.

Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this as an independent or partner practice block of about 20 to 30 minutes after a short mini-lesson on converting between fractions, decimals, and percents.
- Discussion question: Why does 0.75 equal 3/4, and how could you show that the two represent the same amount on a number line?
- Scaffold for struggling readers: Start by having students complete one column together, reasoning aloud about how to multiply or divide to change the form, and provide a fraction-to-percent reference chart.
- Extension for advanced students: Ask them to create their own equivalence table for a fraction like 2/5 or 7/8 and explain which conversion was hardest to find.
- Estimated time: about 25 minutes to complete Table A, plus a few minutes for a whole-class check of answers.
