Problem solving with fractions and decimals

In this unit, pupils have explored the structure of fractions and their relationship with decimals and integers. This is built on in the future unit where pupils deepen their understanding of the arithmetic procedures involving fractions and integers.

In this unit, pupils will be asked to compare and order both fractions and decimals and will assess when conversion is required. Fluency in working with decimals and integers is an important skill which is developed in the prior unit.

This unit develops understanding and manipulation of fractions, including conversion between fractions to terminating and recurring decimals. Pupils then learn strategies to order fractions of increasing complexity.

Comparing and ordering fractions and decimals (positive and negative)

$$5$$ and $$(-5)$$ have the same {{ }} value.

Which of the following are below $$(-5)\unicode{x2103}$$

Complete this sentence:  $$(-22)\unicode{x2103}$$ is {{ }} than $$(-19)\unicode{x2103}$$

Arrange these temperatures from coldest to warmest:

Which of the following pairs of integers need the '>' symbol in the box to make them true?

Arrange these integers from smallest to largest:

Match each statement with the correct symbol needed to go in the box to make each statement true.

Select the word that best completes this statement. 4 and $$(-4)$$ have the same __________ value.

Starting with the smallest, put these numbers in ascending order of size.
