Abstract
Many students are troubled with percentage. The difficulty may lie in the way in which it is presented. Survey tests in Kern County and elsewhere have inclicated a lack of achievement in this particular field. Many teachers have indicated their awareness of the problem in teaching clear concepts in the field of percentage. Supervisors and consultants have observed that many teachers and pupils have difficulties in this field. In order to study the problem at some length and determine if possible, remedial measures, the following study was undertaken.
