Transcript: Percent as a Means to Compare Fractions
INEZ: 10 times 10 is 100. So if he tried 100 times he would have had 70 hits out of 100.
MATT: And Ashley had 20 tries, 20 times five is also 100 and 7 times 5 is 35.
JACKIE: 25 times 4 is 100. So Irv's score is 8 times 4 or 32 out of 100.
DIGIT: Comparin' these fractions is a walk in the park now!
DIGIT: Sheldon is obviously the best jumper with seventy hits per one hundred tries!
JACKIE: Um guys. You know what just hit me? These are all percents: parts of 100.
DIGIT: Uh, remind me. What are percents?
MATT: They're fractions that are parts of 100. Per cent means per 100.
JACKIE: 70 over 100 is 70 percent and this percent sign tells you its parts of 100. 35 over 100 is the same as 35 percent.
DIGIT: So 32 over 100 is the same as 32 percent?
MATT: You got it!
