Percent Means Per 100

Step 1 of 7. A question to start.

Two sale signs

One shop takes 25% off an $80 jacket. Another takes $15 off.

Percent means per 100. So 25% is 25 out of every 100.

Both shops are cutting the same $20. Only one sign tells you that.

A percent is a rate, and a rate compares two amounts.
