Converting Decimals to Fractions WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
Provide students with structured guidance to explore the connection between decimals and fractions.
Section A starts with converting decimals into fractions using place value and then simplifying them. In Section B, the focus is on equivalence: students spot errors in conversions, pick out equivalent numbers from a set, and find the odd one out. Section C gives extra practice with simplifying decimals to fractions, while Section D pushes the learning further with comparisons, ordering, and checking whether general statements are always true.
By mixing fluency practice with reasoning and problem-solving, this resource helps learners grow in confidence when working with decimals and fractions.
