60404 Decimals and Fractions
You can write decimals as fractions or mixed numbers. A place
value chart will help you read the decimal. Remember the decimal
point is read as the word “and.”
To write 0.47 as a fraction, first think
about the decimal in words.
0.47 is read “forty-seven hundredths.” The place value of the
decimal tells you the denominator is 100.
0.47 = 47
100
To write 8.3 as a mixed number, first
think about the decimal in words.
8.3 is read “eight and three tenths.” The place value of the decimal
tells you the denominator is 10. The decimal point is read as the
word “and.”
8.3 = 8 3

Decimals and Fractions (continued)
Fractions and mixed numbers can be written as decimals.
To write 1 as a decimal, first think about the expression in words.

Then do the division.
0.25
0.25 is a terminating decimal

A number that contains a whole number and a fraction is called
a mixed number. 2 1 is an example of a mixed number. To
3
write 2 1 as a decimal, first think about the expression in words.

2 means “2 and 1 divided by 3.” Keep 2 as the whole number.

Then do the division.
0.33
1 ⎟ 3 = 0.33 . . ., or 0.3 .

0.3 is a repeating decimal
10
because it does not end.

The word repeating means something happening over and over.
A church bell that chimes every hour is an example of a repeating
sound.
The word terminating means something that ends. The sixth grade
class party will be terminating at 10:00 P.M.
Fractions can be written as either terminating or repeating decimals.
In a repeating decimal, sometimes one digit repeats and sometimes
more than one digit repeats.
