I'm sorry this is going up so late! It's been a long day.

Sixth Grade

Lesson 85. To do these problems, you will be changing a fraction to a decimal or a decimal to a fraction. If it wants a fraction answer, both of the parts of the problem need to be fractions and vice versa for decimal answers. The assignment is due on Thursday since we have a House Tournament tomorrow. Don't forget to wear your shirts and bring your point sheets!
