Common Misconceptions
and Errors
• Remind pupils that when
they convert a mixed number
to a decimal, they have to
remember to add the whole
number. Pupils may forget to
add the whole number when
they are focused on working
out the equivalent fraction.
• Remind pupils that when
multiplying the numerator
and denominator by the same
factor in equivalent fractions,
the whole number remains the
same.

The prawns from Supermarket B is a better buy.
0.857 is greater than 0.8 but smaller than 0.875.
