Converting Repeating Decimals to Fractions WORKSHEET

This worksheet is all about recurring decimals without using the algebraic method.

Section A starts with a match up of ninths and their decimal equivalents and encourages students to notice any patterns. This pattern spotting is continued in section B, as students are able to use an example given to find recurring decimal equivalents of fractions with 99 or 999 as the denominator. Section B pushes students further. Here, learners are given two examples of the conversions where the fraction denominators are 90 and 990 and asked to find further equivalences like this.
