Converting Decimals to Fractions and Fractions to Decimals: A Step-by-Step Guide

In this lesson, you will learn how to effectively convert decimals to fractions and vice versa. We will explore the place value of digits to determine the appropriate denominator for fractions, and how to represent fractions as decimals. The tutorial includes examples such as converting 0.5 to 5/10 and 0.567 to 567/1000. We also address scenarios with whole numbers in front of the decimal or fraction and discuss how to handle fractions that don't have a denominator of 10. Join us to master these essential skills!
