What Are Rates and Percentages?
Rates compare two different things, like how many kilometres you travel in an hour. For example, if you drive 100 km in 2 hours, your rate is 50 km/hour.
Percentages are a way to show parts of a whole using 100 as the total. For example, 50% means 50 out of 100, or half.
You can use rates and percentages to understand discounts, taxes, speed, efficiency, and much more!
