Students will write fractions with denominators of 10 or 100 using decimal notation and explain each digit's value.
Write \(\frac{47}{100}\) as a decimal.
Write \(\frac{6}{10}\) as a decimal.
Which decimal is equal to \(\frac{35}{100}\)?
Write \(0.7\) as a fraction with denominator \(10\).
Express \(0.23\) as a fraction.
Which of these is NOT equivalent to \(0.3\)?
What decimal represents \(\frac{8}{10}\)?
Mia has \(0.4\) of a pizza. How can she write this as a fraction with denominator \(10\)?
Hundredths fill the second decimal place. \(\frac{47}{100} = 0.47\), so the answer is \(\mathbf{0.47}\).
Tenths fill the first decimal place. \(\frac{6}{10} = 0.6\), so the answer is \(\mathbf{0.6}\).
Thirty-five hundredths uses both decimal places: \(\frac{35}{100} = 0.35\), so the answer is \(\mathbf{0.35}\).
\(0.7\) is zero point seven, which is read as seven tenths. That means \(0.7 = \frac{7}{10}\).
When you see \(0.23\), you're looking at twenty-three hundredths: \(0.23 = \frac{23}{100}\).
Three tenths can be written as \(0.3\), \(0.30\), \(\frac{3}{10}\), or \(\frac{30}{100}\). But \(\frac{3}{100} = 0.03\) is only 3 hundredths, so it doesn't match.
Eight tenths fills the first decimal place: \(\frac{8}{10} = 0.8\).
\(0.4\) is zero point four, which is four tenths: \(0.4 = \frac{4}{10}\). That's the answer Mia is looking for.
