Equivalent Fractions and Division with Decimals

In math we are developing strategies to compare fractions. We are thinking about finding the decimal equivalent and the percent that is the same value. We are using calculators and working out problems by hand.

We are thinking about place values less than one. We are making connections with tenths and dimes, hundredths and pennies, thousandths and... We are considering what it means to round to the nearest hundredth.
