B. Reference: Olivia, Imelda B. et al. Spiral Math, Trinitas Publishing Inc. 2015. Pg. 207-212.
C. Materials: Envelope, colored paper, printed paper and marker.

III. Learning Experience

A. Preparatory Activities
1. Drill
Identify what is the Rate, Base and Percentage in the given.
1. 25% of 80 is 20
B= 80 R= 25% P= 20
2. 48 is 60% of 80
B= 80 R= 60% P= 48
2. Review
Define what is Percentage?
 Is a part of a whole usually without the percent (%) symbol
What is Rate?
 Is the percent in the whole with the percent (%) symbol
What is Base?
 Is the whole number
B. Developmental Activities
1. Motivation
Show a picture of a department store.
Ask the students:
Have you been on this place?
Why do people love to shop on sale?
2. Presentation of the lesson
Let’s see some of the buyer’s problem while they are on a store
 a. A shirt worth PHP 150 is on sale at PHP 90. What percent is the shirt on
sale?
Ask:
 What is asked in the problem? (The percent of the shirt on sale.)
 What are the given information or data that can help us solve the problem?
(original price- PHP 150 and discounted price- PHP 90
 What is unknown in the problem?
Percentage= 90
Base= 150
Rate=?
 What is the formula to be used? ( R= P/B x 100)
 What is the solution on the given situation?
R= 90/150 x100
R= 0.6 x 100
R= 60%
The shirt was 60% on sale
b. The Grade 5 basketball team won 80% of 15 of their games. How many
games did they win?
Ask:
 What is asked in the problem? (The number of games they won)
 What are the given information or data that can help us solve the problem? (80%
and 15 games)
 What is unknown in the problem?
Base= 15
Rate= 80%
Percentage=?
 What is the formula to be used? (P=R x B)
 What is the solution on the given situation?
P= 80% x 15
P= 0.8 x 15 (convert the percentage rate into decimal dividing it by 100)
P= 12
The number of games they won is 12 games.
c. In a test, Rosanna made 5 mistakes. If this represent 20% of all the items,
how many test items were there?
 What is asked in the problem? (The number of items in a test)
 What are the given information or data that can help us solve the problem? (5
mistakes and 20% )
 What is unknown in the problem?
P= 5
R= 20%
B=?
 What is the formula to be used? (B= P/R)
 What is the solution on the given situation?
B= 5/20%
B= 5/0.20 (Convert the percentage rate to decimal dividing it by 100)
B= 25
The number of test items is 25.
