1/2) - CORRECT ANSWERS It moves the fraction further from 1
When multiplying two decimals together, how many decimals with the product have? -
CORRECT ANSWERS The number of decimal places in the product will equal the sum of the
decimal spots in the two factors that are multiplied together
How can you convert a repeating decial into a fraction? - CORRECT ANSWERS Multiply it by
a power of 10 with the same number of zeroes as there are decimal places and then
subtract x and solve (e.g. 0.33 repeating -> x = 0.33 -> 100x = 33.33 -> 100x - x = 33.33 - 0.33
-> 99x = 33 -> x = 1/3)
What is a terminating decimal? - CORRECT ANSWERS A decimal that ends (i.e., 12.5)
What is a non-terminating decimal? - CORRECT ANSWERS A decimal that doesn't end (i.e,
3.14.....)
How can you tell if a fraction will convert to a terminating or non-terminating decimal? -
CORRECT ANSWERS Any fraction whose denominator only contains prime factors of '2' and
'5' WILL terminate (i.e., 3/10, 21/50, 7/100). Any fraction whose denominator contains a
prime factor other than '2' or '5' WILL NOT terminate (i.e., 3/14, 9/35, 20/99)
How can you determine how many 0's there will be to the left of a decimal point? -
CORRECT ANSWERS Count the number of '10s' (i.e., 2,000 * 70 has 4 zeroes). In more
complex cases, you have to count the number of '2s' and '5s' because those are prime
factors (i.e., k = 2^7 * 5^4 will have 4 zeroes)
What happens when you multiply a proper fraction? - CORRECT ANSWERS It gets smaller
What happens when you divide a proper fraction? - CORRECT ANSWERS It gets bigger
