In class, p7 have been learning to convert fractions, decimals and percentages, we have been focusing mainly on fractions and decimals.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fun Fact: If in a decimal, a number is repeated lots of times, like 1\/3 is 0.33333333 etc. you would write 0.3 with a \u00ba above the 3.<\/p>\n
We have learned lots more, like :<\/p>\n
1\/4 is 0.25 so 2\/4 would be 0.5 you would keep doubling until you got to 4\/4 which is 1.00<\/p>\n
1\/2 is 0.5 which is equivalent to 2\/4<\/p>\n
1\/5 is 0.2 so 2\/5 would be 0.4\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 .<\/p>\n
1\/6\u00a0 would be 0.166<\/p>\n
1\/10 would be 0.1 because there is 10 10ths in 1<\/p>\n
We have also been learning to convert percentages to decimals for example:<\/p>\n
20% as a decimal is 0.2 as a fraction is 1\/4<\/p>\n
25% as a decimal is 0.25 as a fraction is 1\/5<\/p>\n
50% as a decimal is 0.5 as a fraction is 1\/2<\/p>\n
75% as a decimal is 0.75 as a fraction is 3\/4<\/p>\n
80% as a decimal\u00a0is 0.8 as a fraction is 4\/5<\/p>\n
100% as a decimal is 1.0 as a fraction is 1\/1<\/p>\n
These are just some of the vast array of fractions, decimals and percentages in the known world. Hope you found this intreaging and interesting. hopefully you have learned something new.<\/p>\n
