Whether fractions work better than decimals or less as well is very much a question of your preference.
0.10>0.01 because it is fractions 0.10=10/100 0.01=1/100 10/100>1/100
It would've been better if you had some examples. There are infinite numbers of fractions
In a strict mathematical sense, ratios are typically expressed as simplified fractions of whole numbers. However, in practical applications, ratios can be expressed as decimals for ease of calculation and comparison. Decimals in ratios are often used when dealing with measurements or financial data, where the precision of decimal values is necessary. Just keep in mind that when converting a ratio to a decimal, it may result in a repeating or terminating decimal.
3.141593 is best I can remember. 3.14159265 is a little better. (Chuck Baggett)
To change a whole number with a decimal into a fraction, you take the decimal and put it into a fraction in simplest form. Let me give you an example so you understand better: 13.678 = 13 678/1000 = 13 339/500. You change it to a mixed fraction.

The fraction 1/3=0.3333333... In this case it is better to use fractions just like in all cases. There will be no case when decimals will work better than fractions however, if a test says to use decimals; USE THEM!
when you are trying to find a price
The equivalent of 0.15748031496 inches in fractions is about 157/1000 of an inch. When there are more than four numbers in a decimal it is better to round to the third or fourth number.
The answer depends on the form with which you are more comfortable. The main disadvantage of using decimal fractions is that they may result in an accumulation of rounding errors.
It is a competition in which you are given a situation and you should express your views on how to overcome the situation. For instance there are three members in a group, three situations will be given and they can discuss and for each situation one of them should go and express their views. And the person who expresses the situation in a better way gets the prize.
When you'll want to approximate quickly and easily. For example; 34783/89342 = 0.38932417004320474 It is a lot easier to approximate that to 0.39 if you have the decimal form than to round from 34783/89342 to 39/100.

I Think Decimals Are Better Than Fractions
0.10>0.01 because it is fractions 0.10=10/100 0.01=1/100 10/100>1/100
no because without fractions we would have no accuracy
