Reverse Percentages Mastery | Interactive Digital Lesson | 6 Units, 80 Questions | 11+ & GCSE

Most percentage worksheets only test the easy direction: find a percentage of a number. Reverse percentage questions flip it. You're given a percentage and the result, and you have to find the original number. This is where students freeze on the 11+ and GCSE paper, especially once the percentage doesn't divide neatly into 100.

Your child works through this lesson on any screen. They click to reveal each step of a worked example, try the practice questions on paper, then click to check their own answer.

You'll get the link sent to your email automatically as soon as you buy it. No waiting, no manual fulfilment.

How it's structured:

• 6 units, building in difficulty: round percentages, percentages above 100%, non-round percentages, increases and decreases, successive percentage changes, then multi-step word problems
• Each unit opens with a worked example. Your child clicks through it line by line and sees the method before they try a question themselves
• 10 practice questions per unit, colour-coded easy, medium and hard, so your child knows what they're facing before they start
• A final 20-question mixed challenge that pulls from all 6 units, the way reverse percentage questions actually show up on an exam paper
• 80 questions in total, each with a click-to-reveal answer

The method most worksheets skip: when a percentage doesn't share a common factor with 100, the usual shortcut breaks down. This lesson teaches your child to spot the difference, jump to a clean intermediate percentage when they can, and fall back on the unitary method (finding 1% first) when they can't. That judgement call is exactly what separates a confident student from one who freezes on the harder questions.

Use this if:

• Your child is in Year 4 to Year 11 and needs to build percentage confidence
• You're preparing for the 11+, where reverse percentage questions come up regularly
• Your child is doing GCSE Foundation and reverse percentages keep costing them marks
• You want a resource that marks itself instead of one more thing on your list

What you get:

• Instant access, link emailed to you automatically the moment you buy
• 6 worked examples with full step-by-step methods
• 80 practice questions across 6 topics, plus a mixed final challenge
• Click-to-reveal answers throughout, with a reveal-all option per section
