Introductionmb188b453292b2626_1528450127855_0Introduction

Every student brings the calculator for the lesson.

The students revise the conversion of the decimal fractionsdecimal fractionsdecimal fractions into common ones, expansion and reduction of the common fractionscommon fractionscommon fractions and written division.

Using the gained information about the conversion decimal fractionsdecimal fractionsdecimal fractions into the common ones the students write the common fractionscommon fractionscommon fractions in a form of decimal. Then, in pairs they compare the results.

Proceduremb188b453292b2626_1528446435040_0Procedure

The teacher introduces the topic of the lesson: converting the common fractionscommon fractionscommon fractions into the decimal ones.

The students work individually using their computers. They are going to analyse the slideshow concerning the conversion of the common fractionscommon fractionscommon fractions into the decimal ones.

[Slideshow]

Discussion: Which denominators of the common fractionscommon fractionscommon fractions should be found to convert them into decimal fractionsdecimal fractionsdecimal fractions? What does the conversion of the common fraction into the denominators of  10, 100, 1000,… depend on?

The students come up with the following conclusions:
- Some common fractions can be converted into the fractions with denominators of 10, 100, 1000, …
- The common fractions can be reduced to the denominators of 10, 100 or 1000,….. if its denominator is a multiple of the number 10, 100 or 1000… and its numerator can be reduced by the same number as the denominator.
- The common fraction can be expanded to the denominator of 10, 100 or 1000, …,if its denominator is the divisor of the number  10, 100, 1000, …

Discussion: Is it possible to reduce or expand every common fraction to get its denominatordenominatordenominator of 10, 100, 1000, …? What operation does the fraction bar replace? What is the dividend of the common fraction? And what is the divisordivisordivisor? How can we get the quotation equal to the common fraction? How can it be calculated?

The students come up with the following conclusions:
- Not every common fraction can be reduced or expanded to get its denominator of 10, 100, 1000, …
- The fraction bar replaces the division sign.
- The numerator is a dividend and the denominator is a divisor in the common fraction.

Lesson summarymb188b453292b2626_1528450119332_0Lesson summary

The students do the summarising tasks.

Then they sum up the class drawing the conclusions to memorise:

- Some common fractionscommon fractionscommon fractions can be converted into the fractions with denominators of 10, 100, 1000, … by their expanding or reducing.

- The common fraction can be always converted into the decimal fraction by dividing its numeratornumeratornumerator by the denominatordenominatordenominator. The decimal expansion can be either finite or infinite.
