These games and activities help students investigate the relationship between fractions and decimals, focusing on equivalence.
Did you know that fractions are actually the division of the two numbers in the fraction? This video explores this topic to show you the relationship between fractions and division. [6:43]
Khan Academy learning modules include a Community space where users can ask questions and seek help from community members. Educators should consult with their Technology administrators to determine the use of Khan Academy learning modules in their classroom. Please review materials from external sites before sharing with students.
Uses fraction bars to demonstrate how multiplication and division are related. Shows how a fraction is really just a division problem, e.g., 3/4 x 4 equals 3 divided into 4 sets of 3/4. [6:44]

The goal of this task is to provide examples for comparing two fractions by finding a benchmark fraction which lies in between the two.
This task highlights a slightly different aspect of place value as it relates to decimal notation. More than simply being comfortable with decimal notation, the point is for students to be able to move fluidly between and among the different ways that a single value can be represented and to understand the relative size of the numbers in each place.
Find a quick, concise explanation of how to convert repeating decimals to fractions. an example is given and clearly explained.
Find a quick, concise explanation of what a fraction in lowest terms is. An example is given and clearly explained.
Find a quick, concise explanation of both terminating and repeating decimals. An example of each is given and clearly explained.
Find a quick, concise explanation of all aspects of fractions including operations involving two fractions, and working with mixed numbers. Examples are given and clearly explained.

This WebMath site shows how to add, subtract, multiply and divide through a step by step examples. The user simple selects the operation and types in two numbers, and the computer solves the problem through a step by step process. Also demonstrates fractions, ratios, and more.
When a division problem involving whole numbers does not result in a whole number quotient, it is important for students to be able to decide whether the context requires the result to be reported as a whole number with remainder or a mixed number.
This question is answered by discussing and comparing rational and irrational numbers. For more advanced levels of Algebra, there are sections that discuss different lemmas of rational numbers and give their proofs.
In this task students compare 4/5 to 5/4 on a number line.
Shows how the number 3 can be represented as a fraction using fraction models and a number line. [4:23] CCSS.Math.Content.3.NF.A.3.c Express whole numbers as fractions, and recognize fractions that are equivalent to whole numbers.
