Explore Fractions and Decimals with a Hundredths Worksheet

When it comes to understanding new mathematical concepts, visual representations can be very helpful! Our expert teacher team has designed this simple worksheet to help your students deepen their understanding of hundredths by representing them visually on a grid. The worksheet features a grid of squares, inviting students to colour and represent hundredths. This tactile approach transforms the often-challenging realm of fractions and decimals into a concrete, memorable learning experience.

To complete the worksheet, the students choose a number between 10 and 100. Then, they colour their chosen number of squares on the grid. Underneath the grid, they record the fraction they have created in four different ways.

Let’s say the student coloured in seventy-two squares. They would record this fraction as:

• Seventy-two out of one hundred
• Seventy-two hundredths
• 72/100
• 0.72
