Rational Numbers and Decimals Essential Question: How can you convert a rational number to a decimal? Unit 1-1 Rational Numbers • A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio of two integers. Neither number can be zero. – Example: 4 is a ratio 7 and 0.37 is a rational number because it can be written as 37 which is a ratio. 100 Both are examples of rational numbers. Vocabulary • A ratio is a comparison of two numbers. – Example: 3 5 • Integers are the sets of whole numbers and there opposites. – Example: …-3, -2, -1 , 1, 2, 3… Vocabulary Continued • Corresponding- be compatible, similar or consistent. • Conjecture- an opinion or conclusion formed on the basis of incomplete information. • Refine-improve by making small changes. • Reflect- to seek a deeper understanding. Equivalent forms • To change a ratio to a decimal – Divide your numerator (top number) by your denominator (bottom number) Examples: 2 answer would be ?_____ 5 3 4 6 ______ 5 ______ Remember • When dividing your numerator by your denominator your answer may be a repeating decimal. • It can be written as 0.333…. • Or it can be written as 0.3 • With the line over the 3 – Repeating decimals are rational numbers Equivalent Forms • To change a decimal to a ratio – Take your numerator (top number) And place it over 100. Reduce if needed!!! Examples: 0.25 becomes 25 100 --------0.17 ______ 0.36 ______ 0.75 _______ Long division • Divide the numerator by the denominator. • Add a zero after the decimal point. 5 8 .625 8)5.000 - 48 20 - 16 - Add zeros in the dividend and continue dividing until the remainder is 0 40 - 40 0 A terminating decimal is a rational number. Writing mixed numbers as decimals • Change the mixed number to an improper fraction. – Keep the denominator – Multiply the denominator by the whole number – Add the numerator to that number – That is your new numerator Divide the numerator by the dominator to get your decimal. Long division 3 10 Divide 3 by 10. add zero after the decimal point. 3.3 - subtract 9 from10 3)10.0 - you can stop dividing - 9 once you see it is 1.0 repeating. 9 1 Things to Remember • A rational number is a number that can be written a ratio of two integers and neither number can be zero. • A rational number that is terminating decimal means it ends. When dividing the remainder is zero. • A rational number that has a repeating decimal keep on going and going.
