Long Division - 7.2 - Lesson 14

Author: Todd Parks

Converting Terminating Decimals to Fractions

Any terminating decimal can be converted to a fraction using place value (e.g. 0.35 is thirty-five hundredths or 35/100).  A fraction whose denominator includes only factors of 2 and 5 can be converted to a decimal by writing the denominator as a power of ten.

Remember:  Terminating decimals will always have a denominator that is the product of 2's and/or 5's.
