Your final score is based on correct answers, bricks broken and time taken.
8th grade / Number / Percentages / Using percentages / Percentage change
To compare two quantities and work out the percentage increase or decrease, follow these steps:
Step 1: Calculate the difference between the two quantities.
Subtract the initial quantity from the final quantity to find the difference. For example, if the temperature of a liquid started at 50° and increased to 60°, the difference is 10°.
Step 2: Divide the difference by the original quantity and multiply by 100.
To find the percentage increase or decrease, divide the difference by the original quantity and multiply by 100. If the difference is positive, it is a percentage increase, and if the difference is negative, it is a percentage decrease. For example, if the initial temperature is 50°, then the percentage increase would be:
Difference = 60° - 50° = 10°
Percentage increase = (10/50) x 100 = 20%
Therefore, the temperature increased by 20%.
So, to compare two quantities and work out the percentage increase or decrease, you need to calculate the difference between the two quantities, divide the difference by the original quantity, multiply by 100, and include the percent sign in the answer.
With our Pong math game you will be practicing the topic "Percentage change" from 8th grade / Number / Percentages / Percentages. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to compare two quantities to work out the percentage increase or decrease.
In our version of Pong/Breakout, there are 3 types of bricks for you to break: green bricks are worth just 2 points; yellow bricks are worth a whopping 50 points; breaking white bricks, which are worth 10 points, wins you a math question from the topic you have chosen.
You start with 5 lives. If the ball goes below the paddle, you lose a life and 200 points. The game ends when you answer all 10 questions or lose all your lives.
