To convert a fraction to a decimal, you look at the denominator (the bottom number).
* If the denominator is
10, move the decimal point in the numerator
1 place to the left.
* If the denominator is
100, move the decimal point
2 places to the left.
* If the denominator is
1000, move the decimal point
3 places to the left.
Here are the solutions for each problem on the worksheet:
