Grade 6 percentages test
A free Grade 6 percentages test online, with answers, for South African learners following CAPS. It draws questions from 2 topics and the numbers change every time, so a child can take it again and again and never meet the same paper twice. Choose 10, 25 or 50 questions.
Grade 6 finds percentages of whole numbers and recognises the same number as a fraction, a decimal and a percentage. In the Department of Basic Education’s teaching plan, Grade 6 percentages are taught in Term 3. It is tested in the Grade 6 maths Term 3 test and the final Term 4 exam.
Every answer is marked as you go, with the working shown, so a wrong answer teaches something instead of only costing a mark. Finding 25% of 80 by dividing by 25 instead of by 4, and mixing up the increase with the new amount after the increase.
