You can use fractions or decimals to
estimate with percents.
Estimating Percents with Fractions
You can estimate the percent of a number by

Estimating Percents with Decimals
Another way to estimate percents is to find 1% or
10% of a number. You can do this by moving the
decimal point in the number.
1%
Find
of any
number by moving the
decimal point 2 places to
the left.
Find 1% of 45
45.0 = 0.45
10%
Find
of any
number by moving the
decimal point 1 place to
the left.
Find 10% of 45
45.0 = 4.5
Use 1% or 10% to estimate the
percent of each number.
Find 4% of 18
18 is about 20, so find 4% of 20.
1% of 20 =.20.
4% of 20 = 4 · 0.2 = 0.8 4% equals 4 · 1%.
4% of 18 is about 0.8.
Find 29% of 80
29% is about 30, so find 30% of 80.
10% of 80 = 80.
.
30% of 80 = 3 · 8.0 = 24.0 30% equals 3 · 10%
29% of 80 is about 24.
Real-Life Application
Tim spent $58 on dinner for his family. About
how much money should he leave for a 15%
tip?
Since $58 is about $60, find 15% of $60.
15% = 10% + 5%
Think: 15% is 10% + 5%.
10% of $60 = $6
1
5% is 2 of 10% so divide
5% of $60 = $6 ÷ 2 = $3
$6 + $3 = $9
$6 by 2.
Add the 10% and 5%
estimates.
Tim should leave about $9 for a 15% tip.
Real-Life Application
Amanda spent $12 on a hair cut. About how
much money should she leave for a 15% tip?
Since $12 is about $10, find 15% of $10.
15% = 10% + 5%
Think: 15% is 10% + 5%.
10% of $10 = $1
1
5% is 2 of 10% so divide
5% of $10 = $1 ÷ 2 = $0.50
$1 + $0.50 = $1.50
$1 by 2.
Add the 10% and 5%
estimates.
Amanda should leave about $1.50 for a 15% tip.
