How do you add/subtract fractions? - ANSWERS-Rewrite with a common
denominator, then add/subtract numerators.
What is a reciprocal? - ANSWERS-The flipped version of a fraction (e.g., 3/4 →
4/3).
What does percent mean? - ANSWERS-Per hundred.
How do you convert a decimal to a percent? - ANSWERS-Multiply by 100.
(0.25 → 25%).
How do you convert a percent to a decimal? - ANSWERS-Divide by 100. (75%
→ 0.75).
How do you find 10% of a number quickly? - ANSWERS-Move the decimal
one place to the left.
Example: What is 25% of 200? - ANSWERS-200 × 0.25 = 50.

Approximate value of π? - ANSWERS-3.14.
What does ≈ mean? - ANSWERS-About equal to.
What is a conversion factor? - ANSWERS-A ratio that compares two
equivalent values in different units.
