Fractions Decimals Percents Practice Activities

Class 6 maths worksheets for converting and comparing fractions, decimals and percents using clear practice and everyday percentage ideas.

Practice that builds confidence

What children learn

These Class 6 maths worksheets help children understand that fractions, decimals and percents are three ways to describe the same part of a whole. Learners practise reading, writing, converting and comparing values such as 1/2, 0.5 and 50%.

The printable activities include varied problems with equivalent forms, percent meaning, decimal place value and fraction reasoning. Children build fluency while also learning when each representation is most useful.

Fractions, decimals and percents are linked by the idea of equal parts. A fraction shows parts of a whole, a decimal uses place value, and a percent means “out of 100”. In these worksheets, children move between forms like 3/4, 0.75 and 75%, so the notation becomes meaningful rather than a rule to memorise.

How the practice progresses

Activities begin with familiar equivalents such as halves, quarters, tenths and hundredths. Children then convert fractions to decimals, decimals to percents, and percents back to fractions. Some questions ask them to compare mixed representations, for example deciding whether 0.6, 5/8 or 70% is greatest. This gradual sequence supports both calculation and number sense.

A simple parent routine

At home, ask your child to read one question aloud and identify the “whole” first. Then have them choose a strategy: make the denominator 100, divide the numerator by the denominator, or move between decimal and percent notation. After every few questions, ask, “Does this answer make sense as a part of one whole?” Use daily examples like discounts, marks, battery charge or cricket statistics to make percents feel real.

Classroom uses

Teachers can use these printables for revision after introducing percents, short practice in maths notebooks, partner checks or small-group support. They also work well as bridge tasks before topics such as percentage increase, discounts, data interpretation and ratio. Mixed-form questions help reveal whether learners understand equivalence or are only following a single conversion method.

Common errors to watch for

Children may write 0.5% when they mean 50%, forget that percent is out of 100, or compare fractions and decimals without converting them to a common form. Some may treat 1/4 as 1.4 because they focus on the digits rather than the value. A useful child-friendly strategy is: “Name the whole, choose one form, then compare.”

Why iBloom worksheets help

iBloom worksheets keep the focus on Class 6 understanding: clear layouts, balanced question types and enough repetition for confidence without making practice mechanical. The activities encourage children to explain conversions, check reasonableness and see fractions, decimals and percents as connected maths language.

Helpful answers

Frequently asked questions

What will my child practise in these Class 6 worksheets?

Children practise converting between fractions, decimals and percents, comparing mixed forms, and recognising equivalent values such as 1/4, 0.25 and 25%.

How can a child convert a decimal to a percent?

A decimal can be converted to a percent by multiplying by 100 and adding the percent sign. For example, 0.72 becomes 72%.

What is a good way to explain percent to a Class 6 learner?

Explain that percent means out of 100. So 35% means 35 out of 100 equal parts, which can also be written as 35/100 or 0.35.

Why do students confuse 0.5 and 5%?

They may focus on the digit 5 and miss the place value. 0.5 is five tenths, which equals 50%, while 5% is five hundredths, or 0.05.

How should these worksheets be used for revision?

Start with equivalent forms, then move to conversion questions and finally mixed comparison problems. Ask children to explain one or two answers in words to check understanding.
