Intro

Finding Part, Whole, or Percent

By the end of this lesson you will solve real-world problems that ask you to find the part, find the whole, or find the percent, using concrete and pictorial models. A percent is a number of hundredths, or 'out of 100,' so 75 percent means 75 out of every 100.
