Check understanding

  • Explain that rational numbers can be written as a fraction of two integers and have terminating or repeating decimals
  • Give examples of irrational numbers and explain why their decimal expansions neither terminate nor repeat
  • Appreciate that between any two numbers there are infinitely many other numbers
“Can your child explain that numbers like √2 and π can't be written as exact fractions — and that their decimal expansions go on forever without repeating?”
