Practice calculating percentages with this worksheet featuring six word problems about gaming scores, savings, and distances.

Let's solve each of the percentage word problems step by step.

---

Problem 1:

Captain scores 120 points on Space Invaders. Tyger scores 10% more points than Captain. How many points does Tyger score?

#### Solution:
1. Captain's score = 120 points.
2. Tyger scores 10% more than Captain.
- Calculate 10% of Captain's score:
\[
10\% \text{ of } 120 = \frac{10}{100} \times 120 = 12
\]
3. Add this to Captain's score to find Tyger's score:
\[
\text{Tyger's score} = 120 + 12 = 132
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{132}
\]

Problem 2:

Frazer is saving up for a new laptop. He has saved 60% of the amount so far. If the laptop costs £320, how much more does he need to save?

#### Solution:
1. The total cost of the laptop = £320.
2. Frazer has saved 60% of the total cost.
- Calculate 60% of £320:
\[
60\% \text{ of } 320 = \frac{60}{100} \times 320 = 0.6 \times 320 = 192
\]
3. Amount Frazer still needs to save:
\[
\text{Amount needed} = \text{Total cost} - \text{Amount saved} = 320 - 192 = 128
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{128}
\]

Problem 3:

Sally sprints 300 metres in a minute. Quadra runs 20% further than Sally in the same time. How far did Quadra sprint?

#### Solution:
1. Sally's distance = 300 metres.
2. Quadra runs 20% further than Sally.
- Calculate 20% of Sally's distance:
\[
20\% \text{ of } 300 = \frac{20}{100} \times 300 = 0.2 \times 300 = 60
\]
3. Add this to Sally's distance to find Quadra's distance:
\[
\text{Quadra's distance} = 300 + 60 = 360
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{360}
\]

Problem 4:

Newton spends 25% of his free time each day reading. If he spends 40 minutes reading, how much free time does he have in hours and minutes?

#### Solution:
1. Let \( T \) be Newton's total free time in minutes.
2. Newton spends 25% of his free time reading, which is 40 minutes.
- Set up the equation:
\[
25\% \text{ of } T = 40
\]
\[
\frac{25}{100} \times T = 40
\]
\[
0.25 \times T = 40
\]
3. Solve for \( T \):
\[
T = \frac{40}{0.25} = 160 \text{ minutes}
\]
4. Convert 160 minutes into hours and minutes:
- 1 hour = 60 minutes
- \( 160 \div 60 = 2 \) hours and \( 40 \) minutes.

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{2 \text{ hours and } 40 \text{ minutes}}
\]

Problem 5:

There are some fish in an aquarium. 40% of the fish are angelfish. If there are 12 angelfish in the aquarium, how many fish altogether?

#### Solution:
1. Let \( F \) be the total number of fish in the aquarium.
2. 40% of the fish are angelfish, and there are 12 angelfish.
- Set up the equation:
\[
40\% \text{ of } F = 12
\]
\[
\frac{40}{100} \times F = 12
\]
\[
0.4 \times F = 12
\]
3. Solve for \( F \):
\[
F = \frac{12}{0.4} = 30
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{30}
\]

Problem 6:

Sally buys a tin of chocolates. She gives a quarter of the chocolates to Tyger, 10% to Newton, and 15% to Frazer. She keeps the remaining 15 chocolates for herself. How many chocolates were in the tin?

#### Solution:
1. Let \( C \) be the total number of chocolates in the tin.
2. Sally gives:
- A quarter (\( \frac{1}{4} \)) to Tyger.
- 10% to Newton.
- 15% to Frazer.
- Keeps the remaining 15 chocolates for herself.
3. Calculate the percentages given away:
- Quarter to Tyger: \( \frac{1}{4}C = 0.25C \)
- 10% to Newton: \( 0.10C \)
- 15% to Frazer: \( 0.15C \)
4. The remaining chocolates Sally keeps:
\[
C - (0.25C + 0.10C + 0.15C) = 15
\]
5. Simplify the equation:
\[
C - (0.25C + 0.10C + 0.15C) = C - 0.50C = 0.50C
\]
\[
0.50C = 15
\]
6. Solve for \( C \):
\[
C = \frac{15}{0.50} = 30
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{30}
\]
