Decimals
To change a decimal to a fraction Write the
decimal number over the place value of the last
digit. If it has a whole number, leave the whole
number the same. Only change the decimal part.
Example 0.56 is read as fifty six hundredths.
I would write 56 over 100 and then simplify.
Divide 56 and 100 both by 4 and you get 14/25
Example 3.25 is read as three wholes and
twenty-five hundredths. I would keep the 3 and
put 25 over 100. Then simplify. 3 ¼
