Once upon a time in a small village in India, there was a wise math teacher named Mr. Gupta. He was known for his unique way of teaching fractions to his students.
One day, a student named Rohan came to him with a question. \“Sir, what is 3.53 as a fraction?\“ he asked. Mr. Gupta smiled and said, \“That is a very good question, Rohan. Let\“s explore this together.\“
He then explained, \“To convert a decimal number to a fraction, we need to multiply it by a power of 10 until we get an integer. Then, we put that integer over the corresponding power of 10 as the denominator.\“
With this, he wrote 3.53 as 353/100. Rohan\“s eyes lit up with understanding.
Mrs. Patel, the village\“s tea seller, overheard the conversation. She was curious and decided to test her own fractions knowledge. She took out her calculator and converted 3.53 to a fraction, which turned out to be 353/100. She smiled, feeling proud of her calculation skills.
The next day, Mr. Gupta asked Rohan, \“Rohan, do you think 3.53 can be expressed as a fraction with a denominator of 1000?\“ Rohan thought for a moment and answered, \“Yes, sir! We can multiply 3.53 by 1000 to get 3530, and then write it as 3530/1000.\“
Mrs. Patel was impressed by Rohan\“s knowledge and decided to give him a free cup of tea. The villagers gathered around to hear the story of the math teacher and his students, learning that fractions were not just numbers but a part of everyday life. |
