Improve your students math skills and help them learn how to calculate fractions, percentages, and more with these word problems. The exercises are designed for students in the seventh grade, but anyone who wants to get better at math will find them useful.The sections below contain two-word problem worksheets for students, in section Nos. 1 and 3. For ease of grading, identical worksheets, including the answers, are printed in section Nos. 2 and 4. More detailed explanations of some of the problems are also provided within the sections. Find out what birthday cakes, grocery stores, and snowballs have in common with these fun word problems. Practice calculating fractions and percentages with problems such as:When the birthday cake was about to be served, you were told you could have 0.6, 60%, 35, or 6%.Which three of the choices will give you the same size portion?Explain to students that the correct answer is .6, 60%, and 35 because all of these equal 60 percent, or six out of 10, or 60 parts out of 100. By contrast, 6 percent means just that: only six pennies out of 100, six parts out of a 100, or six tiny slivers of cake out of 100. Find the solutions to the word problems that students tackled in the first math worksheet. The second problem, and answer, state:Problem: 47 of the birthday cake was eaten on your birthday. The next day your dad ate 12 of what was left. You get to finish the cake, how much is left?Answer: 314If students are struggling, explain that they can easily find the answer by multiplying fractions as follows, where C stands for the portion of cake that is left. They first need to determine how much cake was left after the birthdayThen they need to see what fraction was left the next day after dad gobbled up some more of the cake:C = 37 x 12C = 3 x 1 7 x 2C = 3 14So 314 of the cake was left over after dad had a snack the next day. Have students learn how to calculate a rate of return and how to divide a large area into smaller lots with these math problems. To help students, go over the first problem as a class:Sam loves basketball and can sink the ball in the net 65% of the time. If he takes 30 shots, how many will he sink?Explain to students that they simply need to convert 65% to a decimal (0.65), and then multiply that number by 30. Find the solutions to the word problems students have tackled in the second math worksheet. For the first problem, demonstrate how to work out the solution if students are still having difficulty, where S equals shots made:So Sam made 19.5 shots. But since you cant make half a shot, Sam made 19 shots if you dont round up.Normally, youd round up decimals five and greater to the next whole number, which would be 20 in this case. But in this rare case, youd round down because, as noted, you cant make half a shot. GettyIts been a minute (or a few decades) since youve built a papier-mâché volcano or looked at microscope slides, but in honor of back-to-school season its officially time to get back into the learning spirit. Were revisiting our student days with a series of grade school quizzes, and next up on the list is — drum roll please — science.Think you remember everything from those solar system and biology lessons? Answer the questions below to see how youd fare against 10- and 11-year-olds. And dont forget to try your hand at this eighth grade spelling test — its harder than you think!NastcoGetty ImagesANSWER: VenusThe order of the planets from the sun is: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.MirekKijewskiGetty ImagesANSWER: fungiThe five kingdoms of life are: monera (prokaryote), protista (eukaryote), fungi, plantae, and animalia. Jose A. Bernat BaceteGetty ImagesANSWER: from other rocksWhile magma or lava solidifies into igneous rocks, metamorphic rocks come from preexisting rocks transformed by heat, pressure, or chemically reactive waters.fpmGetty ImagesANSWER: upper mantleThe basic layers of the Earth are: the crust, upper mantle, lower mantle, outer core, and inner core.NoSystem imagesGetty ImagesANSWER: 21%About 78% of the atmosphere is nitrogen. There are also small amounts of argon, carbon dioxide, other gases, and water vapor. Michael Ver SprillGetty ImagesANSWER: deciduous Deciduous trees (like oaks) drop their leaves in the fall, a process called abscission. Coniferous trees keep their foliage and include pines, cypresses, firs, redwoods, spruces, and cedars.cdwheatleyGetty ImagesANSWER: the weathering of continentsThe erosion from rainfall causes ions like sodium and chloride (which together make salt) to flow into the oceans, where they accumulate. aetbGetty ImagesANSWER: hibernateEstivation is when animals go dormant in response to high temperatures and dry conditions, often in the summer. Hibernation occurs mostly in the winter months. DNY59Getty ImagesANSWER: explosionPhysical changes — like evaporation — dont change what a substance is; they can also be reversed. In a chemical change, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.maconline99Getty ImagesANSWER: seismographA barometer measures air pressure, but seismographs can record motion of the ground. You aced it! Your science teachers should feel proud. Not too shabby for someone who graduated fifth grade a long time ago.Maybe you should read more Popular Mechanics ...Oh dear. Did you even ever go to a science fair?Caroline PicardContributing WriterCaroline is a writer and editor with almost a decade of experience.
