Real-world examples of converting fractions to decimals.

📚 Quick Study Guide

• ➗ To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number).
• 💯 A decimal represents a part of a whole, just like a fraction.
• ➕ Sometimes, it's easier to find an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 10, 100, or 1000, then convert to a decimal.
• 💡 For example, $\frac{1}{2}$ is the same as $\frac{5}{10}$, which is 0.5.
• ♾️ Some fractions result in repeating decimals (e.g., $\frac{1}{3} = 0.333...$).
