Key pointYou can write a fraction as a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator. 2 _ 4 = 2 ÷ 4 = 0.5
Q5 hint
Rewrite fractions so they have denominator 100 to work out the percentage.
Q6 hint
Use the S D key on your calculator to change the fraction into a decimal.

Why learn this?Information about proportions can be given as fractions, decimals or percentages. You need to be able to convert between different types.
Key pointA terminating decimal ends after a definite number of digits, for example 0.39 and 1.042.You can write any terminating decimal as a fraction.
There are 3 decimal places so 245 has been divided by 1000
Divide numerator and denominator by 5 to simplify.49 and 200 don’t have any common factors so it cannot be simplified further.
Q11 hint
Use the number of decimal places to decide whether the denominator should be 100 or 1000.

Key pointA recurring decimal contains a digit, or sequence of digits, which repeats itself forever. A dot over the digit shows it recurs. For example, 0.111 11…. = 0. 1 ˙
9 doesn’t go into 1 so write a 0 in the units column.
There are now 10 tenths.
9 goes into 10 once with remainder 1.There are now 10 hundredths. Continue like this and the decimal recurs.
