problem_activity: Activity
The purpose of this task is for students to rewrite rational numbers with terminating decimal expansions in fraction form and fractions with terminating decimal expansions as decimals. This activity is the first of a series of three in which students rewrite numbers in different ways, supporting their understanding of what rational and irrational numbers are and how they can be represented.
Monitor for students who write
\(\frac15\)
and
\(\frac{2}{10}\)
for 0.2.
Launch
Arrange students in groups of 2. Do not provide access to calculators.
Remind students that all rational numbers are fractions and their opposites, and they can all be written in the form
\(\frac{a}{b}\)
where
\(a\)
and
\(b\)
are integers (with
\(b\neq 0\)
). In fact, there are many equivalent fractions that represent a single rational number. For example, 5 is equivalent to
\(\frac{10}{2}\)
and
\(\frac{15}{3}\)
.
Students should complete the problems individually, then compare with their partners and come to resolutions over any differences. Repeat this process for the second problem.
Action and Expression: Internalize Executive Functions.
To support development of organizational skills, check in with students within the first 2-3 minutes of work time. Look for students who find equivalent ways to represent fractions and decimals. Check for precision in calculations and encourage partners to seek clarification in their discussions.
Supports accessibility for: Memory; Organization
Writing: MLR3 Clarify, Critique, Correct.
Present an incorrect statement that reflects a possible misunderstanding from the class. For example, finding the decimal representations of rational numbers, an incorrect statement is: “For finding the decimal representation of
\(\frac38\)
, divide 8 by 3 using long division ”. Prompt students to identify the error, and then write a correct version. This helps students evaluate, and improve on, the written mathematical arguments of others.
Design Principle(s): Maximize meta-awareness
Student Facing
Rational numbers are fractions and their opposites. All of these numbers are rational numbers. Show that they are rational by writing them in the form
\(\frac{a}{b}\)
or
\(\text -\frac{a}{b}\)
.
0.2
\(\text -\sqrt{4}\)
0.333
\(\sqrt[3]{1000}\)
-1.000001
\(\sqrt{\frac19}\)
All rational numbers have decimal representations, too. Find the decimal representation of each of these rational numbers.
\(\frac38\)
\(\frac75\)
\(\frac{999}{1000}\)
\(\frac{111}{2}\)
\(\sqrt[3]{\frac18}\)

Anticipated Misconceptions
Some students may write that
\(0.333=\frac13\)
. If so, ask them to check their work by calculating the decimal representation of
\(\frac13\)
.
Activity Synthesis
The purpose of this discussion is to highlight different strategies for rewriting rational numbers in different forms. Select previously identified students to share their solutions, including one student who wrote
\(\frac15\)
for 0.2 and another who wrote
\(\frac{2}{10}\)
. For the problems with roots, the values were purposefully chosen to emphasize to students that just because a number is written with a square or cube root does not mean it is not rational.
For 0.2, draw a number line with the numbers 0, 1, and 2 with plenty of space between the integers. Subdivide the segment from 0 to 1 into 5 equal pieces, and then ask where to plot
\(\frac15\)
. Then label
\(\frac15\)
and ask how we can see that this is
\(\frac{2}{10}\)
. (Subdivide each fifth into two equal pieces—now each one is
\(\frac{1}{10}\)
.) Then label the point
\(\frac{2}{10}\)
and 0.2.

Remind students that the point corresponds to a rational number, and we have a lot of different ways we can represent that number.
