• Divide the numerator by the denominator, then move the decimal point
of the answer to two places (multiply by 100) and affix the % sign.
Example 1:
1
1÷2 = 0.5 (decimal)
2
- Multiply 0.5 by 100 to change it
Divide 1 by 2 to a percentage or simply move
the decimal point 2 places to the
right and affix the % sign.
1
0.375 × 100 = 37.5% or 37 2 %
Example 4:
1
1 ÷ 3 = 0.333 (nonterminating
3
repeating decimal)
Divide 1 by 3 - Multiply 0.333 by 100 to change it
to a percentage or simply move
the decimal point 2 places to the
right and affix the % sign.
1
0.333 × 100 = 33.3% or 33 3 %
Example 5: 2

C. Rename percentages to fractions
• Drop the % sign. Copy the numerator over a denominator of 100
and express the fraction in simplest form.
20 20 1 16 4 4
Examples: 20% =100 ÷ 20 = 5 16% =100 ÷ 4 = 25
75 25 3 99
75% =100 ÷ 25 = 4 99% =100
100 39
1 100 1 1 4 39 1 39
33 3% = 3
= × 100 = 3 7 5% = 5
= 5 × 100 = 500

LEARNING PACKETS IN MATH 6
Third Quarter – Week 2
Topic: Rate, Base, and Percentage
A. Definition of Terms
Percentage is a part of a whole. It is obtained when a number is multiplied by
a rate (percent).
Base is the whole that represents 100%.
Rate (percent) is part of a whole with the % symbol.
Example:
The Philippines’ annual inflation data for November soared to 8.0%, marking
the country’s fastest inflation in 14-year high since November 2008 on the back
of higher food prices, according to the Philippines Statistics Authority.
Since March, fish, meat, and vegetable prices have increased further by
Php10-40 in April to date. The price of bangus for example increased by 25%
from Php160 to Php200 per kilogram, pork kasim from Php320 to 380, and
pork liempo from Php370 to 380 …

B. In solving any of the three, identify first in the given which is the percentage,
base, and rate. This will make it easier to identify what needs to be solved.
There are “clue” words that can help us determine the rate(percent),
percentage, or base.
More examples:
R B P P R B
1. 90% of 200 is 180. 2. 35 is 5% of 700.
Note: Before you use the Rate to divide or multiply, you must convert it first
to decimal.
Examples:
Solution:
Rate = ? Base = 80 Percentage = 20
R = (P ÷ B) x 100
R = (20 ÷ 80) x 100
R = 0.25 x 100
R = 25 %
96
2. What is 30% of 450?
Solution:
Percentage = ? Rate = 30% Base = 450
P=RxB
P = 30% x 450
P = 0.3 x 450 (you need to express the rate in decimal or fraction form)
P = 135
Solution:
Base = ? Percentage = 130 Rate = 40%
B=P÷R
B = 130 ÷ 40%
B = 130 ÷ 0.4 (you need to express the rate in decimal or fraction form)
B = 325

D. Applications:
Markups and Percentage of Increase or Decrease
(Discussion on the Items to be sold during the Mathemarket)
Selling price is the price of an item after the markup price has been added.
Selling Price= Original Price + Markup Price
Example 1: Your group adds a markup of 20% on the decorations that you will
sell. How much is the markup price if a décor originally costs ₱35?
Example 2: A notebook originally costs ₱48 and was sold for ₱60. What is the
markup rate or the rate of increase?
𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒖𝒑 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆
Markup Rate= x 100
𝑶𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆
60−48 12 1
= = 48 = 4
48
= 25%
Example 3: A vendor bought each pair of slippers at ₱50 and sold them for ₱64.
Find the percent of increase to the price of the slippers.
𝑺𝒂𝒍𝒆 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆 −𝑶𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆
Rate of Increase= 𝑶𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆
64 −50 14 28
= = 50 = 100
50
= 28%
Example 4. A pen that costs ₱12 was sold for ₱36. What is the rate of increase to
the price of the pen? Do you think this is acceptable? Why?
98
𝑺𝒂𝒍𝒆 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆 −𝑶𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆
Rate of Increase= 𝒙 𝟏𝟎𝟎
𝑶𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆
36 −12 24
= = 12 = 2

Third Quarter – Week 3
Topic: Percentage Problems Applied to Discounts and
Markups, Commission, Tax, and Simple Interest
1. In a sale, all the prices of online class gadgets are reduced by 30%. Belle
sees a headphone that cost ₱930 before the sale. How much will it cost in
the sale?
Model:
100% (₱930)
30%
Solution 1:
Percentage = ? Rate = 70% Base = ₱899
P=RxB
P = 70% x 930
P = 0.7 x 930
P = ₱651
101
Solution 2:
Percentage = ? Rate = 30% Base = ₱930
P=RxB
P = 30% x 930
P = 0.3 x 930
P = ₱279 Sale price = Original Price - the percentage discount
Sale Price = ₱930 – ₱279
Sale Price = ₱651
2. An air fryer that costs ₱3 290 will be on a 10% sale for a week. In the
second week of the sale, the price will be reduced by 10% of the previous
week’s price. If mother will buy the air fryer in the second week, how
much will she pay?
Solution:
Week 1
Percentage = ? Rate = 90% Base = ₱3 290
P=RxB
P = 90% x 3 290
P = 0.9 x 3 290
P = ₱2 961
Week 2
Percentage = ? Rate = 90% Base = ₱2 961
*The base in week 2 is different from the base of week 1 since the 10%
discount will be given to the previous week’s price.
P=RxB
P = 90% x 2 961
P = 0.9 x 2 961
P = ₱2 664.90
102
3. Aurora bought a study table at a discount. She paid ₱1 197 for it. This was
57% of the usual price.
Solution:
Model (i) ?

?%
103
Solution:
1. A sales agent is entitled to 8% on all his sales. If he was able to sell ₱40
000 worth of goods, how much commission would he get?
P=RxB
= 0.08 x 40 000
= ₱3 200
The seller will receive ₱3200 commission.
R = (P ÷ B) x 100
R = (1500 ÷300 000) x 100
R = 0.005 x 100
R = 0.5 % or ½%
104
