If a candy bar costs 3/4 of a dollar, can your mathematicians figure out the cost in cents? After watching this animated video, your learners will see that every fraction can be a decimal and every decimal can be a fraction. The video demonstrates two ways to convert the fractions, one using division, and the other using the multiplicative shortcut to change the denominator to a power of 10. Once your learners have mastered this skill have them take the included test to see how well they can do.
