Year 4 Maths – Understand Denominators of 10 and 100 KS2 Revision
What you need to know
Things to remember:
- A fraction is a division, with the top number divided by the bottom number.
- A 10 on the bottom means we divide by 10.
- A 100 on the bottom means we divide by 100.
Remember, we have fancy names for the numbers in a fraction:
\frac{5}{100} = \frac{\leftarrow Numerator}{\leftarrow Denominator}
A fraction is a way of writing a division, with the top being divided by the bottom.
Let’s start with 10ths
\frac{5}{10}= 5\div10=0.5
\frac{70}{10}= 70\div10=7
\frac{80}{10}= 80\div10=8
\frac{120}{10}= 120\div10=12
How about 100ths?
\frac{500}{100}= 500\div100=5
\frac{700}{100}= 700\div100=7
\frac{1000}{100}= 1000\div100=10
\frac{200}{100}= 200\div100=2
