How do you convert decimal measurements into a fraction?
A fraction would be the numbers after the decimal divided by a 1 followed by a number of zeros equal to the number of numbers after the decimal point. For example: .1 is 1/10 .23 is 23/100 .400 is 400/1000 Fractions should not contain a decimal
When adding or subtracting fractions what should you do first?
For adding or substracting fractions first of all we should calculate the LCM( Lowest Common Multiplier) of the denominators in both of the fractions.
What should be applied to fractions when written as words?
Quotation marks
Do you need a common denominator when subtracting fractions?
yes you should use a common denominator when subtracting with fractions, it makes it much easier.
What order do these fractions go in from least to greatest 11 over 12 3 over 4 1 over 3 1 over 2 2 over 5?
Convert them all to decimal (use a calculator, and divide the numerator by the denominator). Then it should be easy to compare them.
Why should there be percentages when a number can be expressed as a fraction or a decimal?
Decimals and percentages are easier to compare than fractions - particularly if they are unlike fractions. That does not explain why percentages are required when we have decimal number and there is no good answer to that!
How do you know the equivalent fractions for 3 over 4 are equivalent?
The decimal conversion of the equivalent fractions of 3/4 should be equal to 0.75.
Why should you multiply the divisor and the dividend by the same power of 10?
If you are a beginner and not comfortable doing divisions when either the numerator or particularly the denominator are decimal fractions, then it is useful to multiply them both by the same power of 10 to get rid of the decimal fractions.
Do you have to have a whole number when you write a decimal out?
No, because if it was a whole number it would contain no fractions or decimals. Decimal numbers should be preceded by a 0, which is a whole number, if there is no other whole number. For example, if you are changing 18/100 to a decimal, it should be written as 0.18 rather than just .18.
How do you convert decimal measurements into a fraction?

What are non examples of like fractions?
non examples of like fractions = fractions that are not equal in value to other fractions. For example: 1/2 and 3/4. 1/2=.5 and 3/4=.75 since .5 does not equal .75, then 1/2 & 3/4 are not "like fractions" (see below for a summary of like fractions). Additional Info.: Like fraction examples: 1/2 & 2/4 (both fractions = the decimal value .5) 1/8 & 3/24 (both fractions = the decimal value .125) A "like fraction" is a fraction that has the same decimal value as another fraction. For example: 1/2 and 2/4 both = the decimal value .5 The easiest way to create a like fraction is to use a fraction that has a decimal value of 1. Simply multiple it times another fraction to create a like fraction. For example: Using 2/2 (which = decimal value 1), you get 2/4 as follows: 2/2 * 1/2 = 2/4 = .5 Note: 2/2 is used to create the "like fraction" 2/4. 2/4 and 1/2 are the "like fractions" because they both = the decimal value .5 You can use any fraction that is = to decimal value 1, for example: 200/200 * 1/2 = 200/400 = .5 200/400 & 1/2 are the "like fractions" that both have a .5 decimal value. You should remember this fact because it is used frequently in algebra and higher math.
Should all improper fractions be converted to mixed fractions?
Yes they should
When adding or subtracting fractions what should you do first?
For adding or substracting fractions first of all we should calculate the LCM( Lowest Common Multiplier) of the denominators in both of the fractions.
What do i do with the remainders when dealing with fractions?
You should not have any remainders in fractions!
What does express as a fraction mean?
This means that you should write your answer using fractional notation as opposed to decimal notation. For example, you would write 1/4 instead of .25 .
What is the acceptable mileage rate in nova scotia?
$0.50 is acceptable for tax purposes federally so should be acceptable in NS.
What is the formula for adding fractions with variable?
In order to add a fraction to a variable the fraction must be converted to decimal as computers cannot understand fractions, thats why they have floating points. On the other hand you could produce an answer in decimal and then convert it into a fraction afterwards but it would be overly complicated for a program to do this. I suggest if you are seriously into this somewhat eccentric behaviour you should try the program Mathematica from Wolfram research which is very expensive.
