Keep place values and the whole visible while scaling decimals or finding a percentage.
In this one. The annual interest is the percentage amount itself. Keep the original amount as the whole.
The question offers two possible units for the same kind of measurement, such as cm or km, or asks to read a time or a percentage from a picture.
Children pick the unit that sounds familiar rather than the one that fits the object's size, or read a clock's hour and minute hands the wrong way round.
