Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Convert Rational Numbers to Decimals. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.

Main Concepts

Convert fractions to decimals by dividing the numerator by the denominator.

Decimals can either be terminating (the division ends in a 0) or repeating where a digit or group of digits repeat endlessly.

Decimals can have an infinite expansion when repeating hence having a location on the number line is approximated.

A rational number has a finite decimal expansion is the same as saying that it can be expressed as a fraction whose numerator is a base-ten unit.

To use long division for finite decimals it can be modeled with the base ten unit.
