Description

Are you working on estimating using truncated decimals? In this worksheet, students approximate the value of infinite decimals by truncating them with less than a specified error (i.e. with an error less than one hundredth)!

** SAVE 20% when you purchase the Complete Pack! or SAVE 50% when you purchase the Year-Long Bundle**

WORKSHEET SECTIONS

  • Key Ideas: students review the following key ideas: approximating using a truncated decimal, definition of truncate, infinite decimal
  • Review: students review addition and multiplication of decimals
  • Guided Practice: students are guided through an approximation problem using truncated decimals
  • Practice: students solve approximation problems independently
  • Challenge: students solve a challenge word problem involving long division and approximation

POSSIBLE USES:

  • bellringer or warm up
  • exit ticket
  • homework
  • informal assessment or quiz
  • test prep

(2 Student Pages; 2 Teacher Pages)

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Know that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. Understand informally that every number has a decimal expansion; for rational numbers show that the decimal expansion repeats eventually, and convert a decimal expansion which repeats eventually into a rational number.
Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., π²). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of √2, show that √2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.
