Convert Decimals to Fractions Game
To convert a decimal to a fraction, first count the number of digits after the decimal point, which determines the denominator (10 for one digit, 100 for two, 1,000 for three, and so on). Then, write the decimal number without the decimal point as the numerator. Finally, simplify the resulting fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor.

Steps for converting a decimal to a fraction:

  1. Identify the denominator: Determine the place value of the last digit in the decimal.
    If the last digit is in the tenths place, the denominator is 10.
    If it’s in the hundredths place, the denominator is 100.
    If it’s in the thousandths place, the denominator is 1,000.
  2. Write the numerator: Write the decimal number as a whole number, ignoring the decimal point. This becomes your numerator.
