## What is Fractions Decimals Percentages?

Fractions Decimals Percentages helps students visually explore the relationship between fractions, decimals, and percentages.

This app is not a quiz and does not ask students to complete problems. Instead, it is designed to build conceptual understanding. By painting grids and circles with one or more colors, students can see how the colored parts are represented as fractions, decimals, and percentages.

Students can use a single representation, such as fractions only, or compare multiple forms at the same time. This makes the app useful for introducing the concepts as well as exploring the connections between them.

Visual Exploration:

Students can paint grids and circles using different colors. As they color the model, the app shows the matching fraction, decimal, and percentage amounts. Models can be very simple, with only one square or sector, or much larger, with up to 10,000 grid squares or 360 circle sectors.

Reviews:

Common Sense Media:
“Use Visual Fractions Decimals and Percentages in the classroom to support math lessons. Use a number form alone, or use multiple forms together for older kids learning about the relationship between these three forms.”

Teachers With Apps:
“There are no problems to complete or solve, this app is designed as a handy tool to help students build conceptual understanding of these three related concepts.”

Features:

- Visual exploration of fractions, decimals, and percentages
- Grids with 1 to 10,000 squares
- Circles with up to 360 sectors
- Explore multiple units with up to 9 grids or circles
- Art grids and circles with 7 painting colors
- Drawings can be saved
- No quizzes, timers, or scores

### 5/5 — Great for students w/ autism and other visual learners

*2013-11-19, version 1.1*

Few apps are as elegantly simple as Visual Fractions, Decimals and Percentages. As the name implies, this app provides graphical representations of fractions, decimals, and percentages. Numeric values can be represented in a grid or circle format and are available for either one unit or multiple units.
 
On each screen in the V F & D app, an interactive visual representation is provided as well as the fraction, decimal, and percentage equivalents. A number line is also presented to provide additional visual support. The app itself is easy to use and provides a powerful tool for students to explore the relationships between the many ways a number can be presented. For our students on the autism spectrum, visual processing is usually the preferred learning style. The V F & D app appeals to our visual learners and provides them with a much needed tool for helping to understand our numbering system.
 
V F D P As an added bonus, V F & D includes an “Art Grid” and “Art Circle” activity for students to explore and create colorful designs. Each design will show a detailed calculation of the fraction, percentage, and decimal representation for each color used in their design.

### 5/5 — Beautiful Graphics!

### 4/5 — Visual stimulation

*2013-10-31, version 1.1*

I liked that students could see the fractions represented in decimal and percentages.  It's a great way for them to visualize it.  
I wish that you could put labels (in word form) of the different fractions.
