Write Decimals as Fractions in Simplest Form
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Write Decimals as Fractions in Simplest Form" is written for 6th Grade (Ages 11-12). If your student is a year younger but already steady on fractions & decimals, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and decimals to fractions never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.
6th grade math worksheet: write 18 decimals such as 0.725 and 0.44 as fractions in simplest form. Answer key included. Part of our decimals to fractions collection.

Can I use this decimals to fractions worksheet for homeschool or classroom?

Yes, both. We made it for 6th Grade fractions & decimals, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with decimals to fractions. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
