Decmal Fractions Complete Course: Fractions Complete Course: br What are Decimal Fractions | Fractions and Decimals Class 5 Maths | MathOGuide br br In this video you will learn that what are decimal fraction.br Decimal fractions are the fractions in which denominators have powers of 10.br br In Class 5 math, the concepts of decimal fractions, fractions, and decimals are fundamental for understanding parts of a whole and how to work with them. Here’s a simple explanation of each:br br br Fractionsbr A fraction represents a part of a whole. It is written as ({a}{b}), where:br - **a** is the numerator (the number of parts you have).br - **b** is the denominator (the total number of equal parts).br br **Example**: (frac{34}) means 3 out of 4 equal parts.br br ### Decimal Fractionsbr Decimal fractions are fractions where the denominator is a power of 10 (like 10, 100, 1000). br br They are written with a decimal point. Decimal fractions are a way to express fractions that have denominators of 10, 100, 1000, etc.br br **Example**: br (110) can be written as 0.1.br (25100) can be written as 0.25.br br br Decimalsbr Decimals are a way of representing fractions in the base-10 number system. They use a decimal point to separate the whole number part from the fractional part.br br **Example**:br 0.7 represents (710).br 0.45 represents (45100).br br Converting Between Fractions and Decimalsbr 1. **To convert a fraction to a decimal**: Divide the numerator by the denominator.br (34) = 3 ÷ 4 = 0.75br br 2. **To convert a decimal to a fraction**: Write the decimal as a fraction with a power of 10 as the denominator, then simplify if needed.br br 0.6 = (610) = (35) (simplified)br br Understanding these concepts helps in performing arithmetic operations, comparing sizes, and solving various problems involving parts of a whole.
