Skittles Fractions and decimals table

In this activity each of the students is given 20 skittles at random. They have to insert the amount and colours into their table. The object of the investigation is to then try and work out the fractions, decimals and percentages of each of their different colours of skittles.

Their are a series of questions and activities related to ratios of skittles to their fractions that the students can complete if they are at a higher level.

The students loved this activity especially when they found out the could eat their skittles at the end.
