"Use percentages to solve problems in a variety of contexts: • including, but not limited to, discounts, interest, taxes, and tips. • including those that involve percent increases and decreases for many different quantities." "Understand and use the relationship between percent change and growth factor (5% and 1.05, for example); include percentages greater than or equal to 100%." "In a group, 40% of the items are red. Of all the red items in the group, 30% also have stripes. What percentage of the items in the group are red and have stripes?"

What you'll learn

  1. Solve a problem with more than one percent step by writing each step as a multiplication applied to the quantity that percent refers to
  2. Find the net effect of successive percent changes by multiplying their growth factors
  3. Find an original value from the value after a percent change by dividing by the growth factor
  4. Express a percent of a percent as a percent of the whole
  5. Decide what each of two percents is a percent of, and combine them accordingly: add percents of the same whole, multiply for a successive change or a percent of a percent, and go through the amounts for separate groups
