I have left a comment at http://linden8z.blogspot.com/2006/12/review-of-percent.html, the person who made the post was talking about the three ways you can get a percent. I think others should read the post because it is organized nicley and the person seems to know what they are talking about.

I think that Ms. Stanzi could be correct because it did not say how many students were in Ms. Lowrey's class, and you would need the amount of students are in her class to figure it out.

Here is the link to the post i commented on http://linden8z.blogspot.com/ . It talks about the 3 ways to find a percent and i think others should read it because its VERY helpful
The principal announced that 50% of the children in Ms. Stanzi's class met their reading goal for the month and that 55% of the children in Ms Lowrey's class met their reading goal for the month. Ms Stanzi said that a greater number of her students met their reading goal. Could Ms Stanzi be correct? Why or Why not.
We wouldn't really know because she didn't exactly say how much people are in her class, but then theres a chance she could be right if there were more kids in her class. If Ms. Stanzi was right that would mean there would be 60 people in her class and only 40 in Ms. Lowrey's class. If you divide 60 from 100 then multiply by 50 it would give you 30. For Ms. Lowrey's class, if you divide 20 from 100 then multiply by it 55 it would give you 11. Therefore Ms. Stanzi is right. If it was the other way around then Ms. Stanzi would be wrong.
Use a hundred grid (unit square) to illustrate the following questions. Once you have explained and illustrated what the question means solve it.
a) 16 is 40% of what number?
b) What is 120% of 30?
On the second picture i forgot to colour in the whole hundred chart so that it would be 100% + the 20% = 120% .

- Add to my blogfor the third way i did it wrong on the bubbleshare. so i'll just redue it here.
the third way to find 35% of 80 is like this
10% = 80 / 10 = 8
10% = 80 / 10 = 8
10% = 80 / 10 = 8
5% = 80 / 5 = 4

30 divided by 10 = 33 then i x 12 = 36
P.S) I couldn't get any of the Bubble Share and the Gliffy to work i tried but my computer wouldn't let me upload anything so i couldn't do it on those sites you a signed us with so i did it on here. Sorry
What is a good definition of Percent?
One is It is a equivalent number out of 100.
Two is It is part of a whole
Two is It is part of a whole
Three is The symbol of a fraction is %
2.)How are three fifths(3/5), 3:2, 60% all the same?
3/5 , 3:2, 60%, and 0.6 are the same because they are all equivalent
0.6 x 100= 60% that is a picture 
3/5 = 0.6 How? divide the Numerator by the denominator
3.) Show 3 different ways to find 35% of 80?
one way is... 35 divided by 100= 0.35
0.8 x 80= 28
The second way is... 80 divided by 100= 0.8
0.8 x 35= 2
4.) Find a link to blogs that deal with percentages. leave a comment behind and add the link with a review.

Ms Stanzi said that a greater number of her students met their reading goal. Could Ms Stanzi be correct? Why or Why not.
Ms. Stanzi's class has 50% of children who seen their ready goal. 50% is half of a 100%.
Ms. Lowrey's class has a 55% of children that have seen their reading goal for the month. 55% is not half of 100%. What i did was i divided 55 by 2 and it equaled to 27.5 but i think Ms. Stanzi's guess was right.
50% out of 100
6.A)Use a hundred grid (unit square) to illustrate the following questions. Once you have explained and illustrated what the question means solve it.

Ms. Stanzi could be correct. She could be right if the number of students in her class is greater than the number in Ms. Lowrey's. If Ms. Stanzi has 50 kids in her class then 25 of them {50%} met their reading goal. If Ms. Lowrey has 40 kids in her class then 22 of them {55%} met their reading goal. But if they both have the same number of kids in their class Ms. Stanzi would be wrong.

Ms Stanzi said that a greater number of her students met their reading goal. Could Ms Stanzi be correct? Why or Why not?
This answer all depends on how many students are in their class.
But let's just say that there are 45 students in Ms. Stanzi's class and 40 students in Ms. Lowery's class.
There may be 55% of Ms. Lowrey's class that met their reading goal but that doesn't mean there are more students in her class.
Question 6
Use a hundred grid (unit square) to illustrate the following question. Once you have explained and illustrated what the means solve it.

subtract 5-3 from the fraction 3/5 and gives you the ratio 3:2
divide 3/5 and it would give you the decimal 0.6
fraction of 3/5 to 60 %
How I got this; Since the circle is 100 percent and I need to get 60%. I divided 100 by 5 and I got 20 %, so I put 20% in each separated piece and put the percentage of each side. I added the left side and i got 60% and then when i added the right side i got 40%.
Question 3:
Show 3 different ways to find 35% of 80. (bubbleshare is an excellent tool to animate the many different ways of finding these answers).

I think this site is a really good that deals with percentages. They talked about reducing, cross multiplying, and ratios. The posts were well done. :)
Question 5:
The principal announced that 50% of the children in Ms. Stanzi's class met their reading goal for the month and that 55% of the children in Ms Lowrey's class met their reading goal for the month. Ms Stanzi said that a greater number of her students met their reading goal. Could Ms Stanzi be correct? Why or Why not.
Ok , lets just say that Ms.Stanzi has more students in her class than Ms.Lowrey's class. So like Ms. Stanzi might have had like about maybe say 50 students and Ms. Lowrey had 40 students in her class.
Ms. Stanzi's class : 50% of 50 - 50/2=25
Ms. Lowrey's class : 55% of 40 - 40/100=0.4x55=22
So there were more students in Ms.Stanzi's class that met their reading goal for the month.!
Question 6:
Use a hundred grid (unit square) to illustrate the following questions. Once you have explained and illustrated what the question means solve it.

Question 1
What is a good definition of percent? You should use words, symbols, pictures and numerical examples in your definition.
Question 2
How are three fifths (3/5), 3:2, 60% and o,6 the same? Use pictures and words to show your answer.
Three fifths, 3:2, 60% and o.6 are the same because they all equal the same thing.
The fraction three fifths can be divided. 3 divided by 5 = 0.6.
0.6 x 100 = 60. Which is 60 percent. Three fifths can also be turned
into a ratio.
Question 3
Show 3 differe
nt ways to find 35% of 80.
80 divided by 100 = 0.8
0.8 x 35 = 28
o.8/1 = 28/100
The principal announced that 50% of the children in Ms. Stanzi's class met their reading goal for the month and that 55% of the children in Ms Lowrey's class met their reading goal for the month. Ms Stanzi said that a greater number of her students met their reading goal. Could Ms Stanzi be correct? Why or Why not.
Ms. Lowrey's class has 55% of children met their reading goal for the month. 55% is well, not half of 100.
If we don't know how many students met their reading goal we will never know if Ms. Stanzi's theory is correct. Althought you can't really say that she's wrong either.
Question 6
Use a hundred grid (unit square) to illustrate the following questions. Once you have explained and illustrated what the question means solve it.
a) 16 is 40% of what number?
40 divided by 16 = 2.5
2.5 x 100 = 250
2.5/1 = 16/250
b) What is 120% of 30?
30 divided by 120 = 0.25
o.25 x 100 = 25
What is a good definition of percent? You should use words, symbols, pictures and numerical examples in your definition.
Question 2
How are three fifths (3/5), 3:2, 60% and o,6 the same? Use pictures and words to show your answer.
Three fifths, 3:2, 60% and o.6 are the same because they all equal the same thing.
The fraction three fifths can be divided. 3 divided by 5 = 0.6.
0.6 x 100 = 60. Which is 60 percent. Three fifths can also be turned
into a ratio.
Question 3
Show 3 differe
nt ways to find 35% of 80.80 divided by 100 = 0.8
0.8 x 35 = 28
o.8/1 = 28/100
80 divided by 10 = 8
8 x 3 = 24
8/10 = 24/80
80 divided by 2 = 40
40 divided by 2 = 20
20/80 = 40/100
Question 4
Find a link to blogs that deal with percentages. Leave a comment behind and add the link with a review (What the post was talking about.... yes you have to read the post and why others should read the post) Hint In the side bar there are links to other schools.

This is a link explaing what a percentage is and how a percent is a fraction. Great use of pictures, understandable instructions and good humor. xD
Question 5The principal announced that 50% of the children in Ms. Stanzi's class met their reading goal for the month and that 55% of the children in Ms Lowrey's class met their reading goal for the month. Ms Stanzi said that a greater number of her students met their reading goal. Could Ms Stanzi be correct? Why or Why not.
Ms. Stanzi's class has 50% of children who met their ready goal. 50% is half of a 100%.
Ms. Lowrey's class has 55% of children met their reading goal for the month. 55% is well, not half of 100.
If we don't know how many students met their reading goal we will never know if Ms. Stanzi's theory is correct. Althought you can't really say that she's wrong either.
Question 6

2.5/1 = 16/250
b) What is 120% of 30?
30 divided by 120 = 0.25
o.25 x 100 = 25
Don't ask me why the font is all funny looking. I can't fix it. I already tired. I can't use Bubbleshare on my computer because the html code won't work. I just used a lot of pics that I made from paint.

Question 5
The principal announced that 50% of the children in Ms. Stanzi's class met their reading goal for the month and that 55% of the children in Ms Lowrey's class met their reading goal for the month. Ms Stanzi said that a greater number of her students met their reading goal. Could Ms Stanzi be correct? Why or Why not.
Ms Stanzi's class has more people because her class can have 40 kids and the other class can have 35 kids.
40 divided by 2 equals 20
35 divided by 2 equals 17.5
35 times 0.05 equals to 1.6
17.5 plus 1.6 equals 19.1
There could be any number of people as long Ms Stanzi's class has more people.
Question 6
Use a hundred grid (unit square) to illustrate the following questions. Once you have explained and illustrated what the question means solve it.
a) 16 is 40% of what number?
b) What is 120% of 30?
answer for
a)
b)30 divided by 100 = 0.3 times 120 = 36
