Course structure

The complete course is ready to explore.

All 8 modules offer short lessons, feedback-driven practice, a mastery check, and saved progress for learners with an account.

Recommended preparation

These courses strengthen preparation but are not strict prerequisites.

Learning outcomes

By the end, learners will be able to…

  • Represent and compare quantities as fractions, decimals, and percents.
  • Add, subtract, multiply, and divide common fractions and decimals.
  • Calculate percent of a quantity and percent increase or decrease.
  • Use ratios, rates, and proportions to solve practical problems.
  • Explain which representation is most useful for a given situation.

Evidence-informed design

Original material, connected by one powerful idea.

Fractions, Decimals, Percents, and Ratios uses original lessons, models, explanations, feedback, and assessments. Its architecture uses these open sources to make sure the sequence and representations build genuine understanding.
