Lesson 1 - Part 1: Rational Numbers

This document discusses representing rational numbers in multiple forms, including decimals, fractions, and percents. It provides examples of converting between these different representations. Key points covered include: - All rational numbers can be written as decimals, fractions, and percents. - To convert a decimal to a percent, move the decimal point two places to the right. - To convert a decimal to a fraction, write the decimal as a fraction with an appropriate denominator. - To convert a percent to a decimal, move the decimal point two places to the left in the percentage. Homework includes practice converting between decimal, fraction, and percent representations of rational numbers.

Part
1:


How
can
we
find
mulHple

representaHons
of
raHonal
numbers?

Standard:
6.N.21

ALL
RATIONAL
NUMBERS
CAN
BE
WRITTEN
AS

DECIMALS,
FRACTIONS,
AND
PERCENTS.


What
is
a
RaHonal
Number?


A
ra#onal number
is
any
number
that
can
be
wriZen
as

a
fracHon;
p/q
where
p
and
q
are
integers
and
q
is
not

equal
to
0.



Wait!
What
are
integers?!


An
integer
is
a
number
that
is
a
posiHve
whole
number,

€

negaHve
whole
number,
or
zero.
When
you
list
integers

in
ascending
order,
they
look
like
this:


…‐3,
‐2,
‐1,
0,
1,
2,
3,…


Conver,ng
from
Decimals
to
Percents

0.5
=
5/10
=
50/100
=
50%


Quite
 simply,
 find
 the
 decimal’s
 equivalent
 fracHon
 and
 find
 an

equivalent
fracHon
with
a
denominator
of
100.


OR,
if
you
want
to
use
a
shortcut,
you
can
just
move
the
decimal
point

two
places
to
the
right:
0.5
=
0.50

050.
So…
0.5
=
50%.


Another
 example:
 0.23
 is
 “twenty‐three
 hundredths”,
 which
 can
 be

wriZen
as
23/100.
Therefore,
0.23
=
23%.


Also,
 0.645
 is
 “six
 hundred
 and
 forty‐five
 thousands”,
 which
 can
 be

wriZen
as
645/1000;
this
can
be
divided
by
10
to
equal
64.5/100.


OR
you
could
just
move
the
decimal
two
places
to
the
right…


0.645

064.5.
Therefore,
0.645
=
64.5%.


Convert
the
following
decimals
to
percents.



1.  0.33

2.  0.29

3.  0.05

4.  0.901

5.  0.823

6.  0.0007

7.  1.35

Convert
the
following
decimals
to
percents.



1.  0.33
=
33/100
=
33%

2.  0.29
=
29/100
=
29%

3.  0.05
=
5/100
=
5%

4.  0.901
=
901/1000
=
90.1/100
=
90.1%


5.  0.823
=
823/1000
=
82.3/100
=
82.3%


6.  0.0007
=
7/10,000
=
0.07%

7.  1.35
=
135/100
=
135%

Conver,ng
from
Decimals
to
Frac,ons

We
 just
 did
 this!
 We
 have
 seen
 0.25
 equals
 “twenty‐five

hundredths”,
which
can
be
wriZen
as
the
fracHon,
25/100
or
¼.



What
about

small
decimals?
The
same
rules
apply!
For example:  

0.00035
=
35/100,000,
because
the
5
is
in
the
100,000
place.



What
about
decimals
greater
than
1?
For example:  

2.43
=
243/100,
because
the
3
is
in
the
hundredths
place.


This
can
be
re‐wriZen
as
a
mixed
number:
2
43/100.

Convert
the
following
decimals
to
fracHons.



1.  0.035

2.  0.0012

3.  0.103

4.  0.00067

5.  1.57

6.  2.84

7.  3.045


Convert
the
following
decimals
to

1.  0.035

2.  0.0012

=

3.  0.103
=

4.  0.00067

6.  2.84
=

7.  3.045
=

=

=

9/200

Conver,ng
from
Percents
to
Decimals

We
have
already
seen
the
conversion
of
decimals
to
percents
and
how,

for
 example,
 0.46
 =
 46%.
 You
 have
 also
 seen
 how
 you
 can
 move
 the

decimal
point
two
places
to
the
right
to
find
the
percentage.
Knowing

this,
the
opposite
is
true
when
moving
from
percent
to
decimal!


Considering
this,
what
decimal
value
is
equivalent
to
59%?


59%
=
59/100
(which
is
“fipy‐nine
hundredths”)
=
0.59.
Or
you
could

look
at
moving
the
decimal
point
two
places
lep:
59.

0.59.


What
about
45.9%?


45.9%
=
459/1000
(which
is
“459
thousandths”)
=
0.459.


Again,
 you
 could
 also
 just
 move
 the
 decimal
 point
 to
 the
 lep
 two

places:
45.9

0.459.

Convert
the
following
percents
to
decimals.



1.  67%

2.  35%

3.  9%

4.  23.6%

5.  15.91%

6.  82.006%

7.  127.5%

Convert
the
following
percents
to
decimals.



1.  67%
=
67/100
=
0.67

2.  35%
=
35/100
=
0.35

3.  9%
=
9/100
=
0.09


4.  23.6%
=
23.6/100
=
236/1000
=
0.236


5.  15.91%
=
15.91/100
=
1591/10,000
=
0.1591


6.  82.006%
=
82006/100,000
=
0.82006


7.  127.5%
=
127.5/100
=
1.275
