Fraction and Decimal Art



In Grade 4, we have been investigating the relationship between fractions and decimal numbers. 


As mathematicians and artists, we started off this inquiry by creating pixel art using Google Sheets by 'filling' squares out of a 10 by 10 table. 




Once we counted the number of squares of a certain colour to find out the fractional value, we converted the value into a decimal number!

(example: seven squares purple out of a hundred squares = 7/100 = 0.07)






















After this task, we started working with more complex numbers and how division can be used to convert fractions into decimals.




See you next time!
