Fractions Decimals Percentages

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.

This app does just what it claims to do! Students will love the beautiful visual representations, and this will definitely help with the understanding of how fractions, decimals and percentages are related to each other.

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.
