Question
what are equivalents decimals and how do you compare them
Hi Youlanda,
Re: "equivalent decimals"....it took me a while to get its meaning. Basically, given a fraction, we want to find an equivalent representation for it in decimal.
An excellent example is given at http://mathcentral.uregina.ca/QQ/database/QQ.09.99/wendlandt1.html
Please refer to this information.
Thanks

Expertise
When I work through problems, I like to emphasize concepts which I believe are worth noting. I will try to answer questions in the following areas, but not at the advanced level. Algebra. Sequences & Series. Trigonometry. Functions & Graphs. Coordinate Geometry. Quadratic Polynomials. Exponential & Logarithms. Basic Calculus. Probability, Permutation and Combination. Mathematical Induction. Complex numbers. Physics problems.
Experience
I have worked as a teaching assistant in college. My hope is that more people will share knowledge without boundary, give help without seeking recognition or monetary rewards.
