Finding percentages and using multipliers

Practise finding a percentage of an amount and calculating percentage increases and decreases.

1.Calculate 17% of £260.
2.A pair of trainers is priced at £96. The price is reduced by 30% in a sale. What is the sale price?
3.A monthly travel pass costs £52. Its price rises by 8%. What is the new price?
  • £56.16
  • £60.00
  • £47.84
  • £52.08
4.A laptop loses 15% of its value each year. It is worth £8,000 now. Calculate its value after two years, assuming the percentage decrease is applied to its value each year.

Reverse percentages

Use the percentage remaining or the percentage total to work back to an original amount.

5.After a 25% reduction, a bicycle costs £450. Find its price before the reduction.
6.A runner completes a course in 40 minutes and wants to reduce that time by 12%. Which statement correctly describes the target time?
  • 40 × 1.12 = 44.8 minutes
  • 40 × 0.88 = 35.2 minutes
  • 40 × 0.12 = 4.8 minutes
  • 40 ÷ 0.88 = about 45.5 minutes
7.At a college, 72% of the students study a language. If 216 students study a language, how many students are there altogether?

Percentages in everyday situations

Apply percentage methods to money and target-score problems.
