Fractions+and+Decimals


 * They are a part of a whole number.
 * As long as numbers go on forever they go on forever
 * You can turn them into each other (i.e 5/10 can be turned into .50 or .5)
 * They can be simplified.
 * The greater the number the smaller the fraction.
 * Some fractions/decimals can be simplified, some can't (i.e. .50-.5 .4- nothing it's the most simplified you can make it.)
 * Fractions can be used to show whole numbers
 * There are different types of fractions... Mixed Numbers, Normal Fraction, Improper Fraction, etc.
 * Just like whole numbers, you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions/decimals.
 * In my opinion... it is much harder to +,-,x, and divide fractions/decimals
 * Schools usually don't teach fractions/decimals until 3rd-4th grade, unlike whole numbers where you learn in K-1st grade.
 * If you're converting fractions to decimals, then they probably have at least one same number (i.e. __8__/10 to .__8__ the 8 is in both.)
