About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 10 word problems finding a percent from a ratio that must first be read out of the story.
This worksheet asks for a percent, but the ratio has to be found in the sentence first - "18 of the 25 seats were filled" rather than a proportion already written out. The answer key shows the middle step, the equivalent ratio out of 100, because the standard is about explaining that a percent is a ratio to 100 rather than about the shortcut. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
Student objectives
- Find a ratio stated in a sentence.

- Write that ratio as a percent.
