# Fractions and Decimals Match

In Grade 4, you learn that fractions and decimal numbers can represent the same value ([Knowledge](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/30057)). This game helps you practise matching fractions with their decimal equivalents and understanding key vocabulary like numerator, denominator, tenths, and equivalent ([Skills](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/30059)). You will compare and order these numbers, and learn how to simplify fractions by finding common factors ([Skills](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/30055)).

## How to play

1. Look at each item in the left column.
2. Find its matching pair in the right column.
3. Write the letter of the match next to each number.
4. Check your answers with the answer key.

## Match the pairs

| Column A | | Column B |
|:---|:---:|:---|
| **A.** decimal | ____ | **1.** In 3/5, the 3 is the numerator |
| **B.** fraction | ____ | **2.** Using <, >, or = symbols |
| **C.** tenths | ____ | **3.** 1/2 or 3/4 |
| **D.** equivalent | ____ | **4.** 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent |
| **E.** numerator | ____ | **5.** In 3/5, the 5 is the denominator |
| **F.** denominator | ____ | **6.** 0.5 or 3.25 |
| **G.** simplify | ____ | **7.** 0.3 has 3 in the tenths place |
| **H.** compare | ____ | **8.** 4/8 simplifies to 1/2 |

## Answer key

- **A** matches **6** (decimal: 0.5 or 3.25)
- **B** matches **3** (fraction: 1/2 or 3/4)
- **C** matches **7** (tenths: 0.3 has 3 in the tenths place)
- **D** matches **4** (equivalent: 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent)
- **E** matches **1** (numerator: In 3/5, the 3 is the numerator)
- **F** matches **5** (denominator: In 3/5, the 5 is the denominator)
- **G** matches **8** (simplify: 4/8 simplifies to 1/2)
- **H** matches **2** (compare: Using <, >, or = symbols)
