Explore outer space and collect different objects to earn space badges as you warp between galaxies with every correct answer.

In this cosmic adventure, students practise converting percentages into decimals. Each multiple choice question presents a percentage, and students must identify its decimal equivalent from the given options. With questions including values above 100%, this game provides both foundational and extension challenges for developing number fluency.

Let’s Explore: Percentage to Decimal supports mathematical reasoning and place value understanding while giving students the chance to journey through galaxies, collect glowing objects, and earn badges for their progress. It’s a stellar way to practise real-world maths skills in an exciting environment.
