Let’s solve each fraction by converting it to a decimal.
Remember:
To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the top number (numerator) by the bottom number (denominator).
But for these problems, since all denominators are 10 or 100, we can use place value!
→ If denominator is 10 → move decimal point one place left in numerator.
→ If denominator is 100 → move decimal point two places left in numerator.
Let’s go step by step:
Left Column (all over 10):
2/10 = 0.2
5/10 = 0.5
9/10 = 0.9
1/10 = 0.1
6/10 = 0.6
4/10 = 0.4
7/10 = 0.7
Right Column (all over 100):
79/100 = 0.79
93/100 = 0.93
55/100 = 0.55
84/100 = 0.84
61/100 = 0.61
37/100 = 0.37
12/100 = 0.12
Double-checking a few:
- 2 ÷ 10 = 0.2 ✔️
- 79 ÷ 100 = 0.79 ✔️
- 12 ÷ 100 = 0.12 ✔️
All look correct.
Final Answer:
Left column: 0.2, 0.5, 0.9, 0.1, 0.6, 0.4, 0.7
Right column: 0.79, 0.93, 0.55, 0.84, 0.61, 0.37, 0.12
