09/12/2007 | Absolutely essential concept for people to understand. I don't know how they teach decimals and fractions in elementary schools today, but when I learned about decimals, it wasn't stressed enough that they are just another representation of fractions. Sure, we did conversions between decimals and fractions, but not until junior high. And even then it was seen as converting one thing into another, not that they were two ways of representing the exact same thing.
