Changing Repeating Decimals to Fractions is a Grade 8 mathematics worksheet that practices converting decimal representations into fractions. Students work with terminating decimals such as 0.17 and 0.35, identify a repeating decimal, convert repeating decimals into simplified fractions, and write a result as an improper fraction. One item also asks students to continue a decimal pattern by supplying the next five digits. The 11-question set uses five multiple-choice questions, five fill-in-the-blank prompts, and one multiple-select item. This varied format checks both recognition and procedural fluency: students select appropriate fraction forms, enter exact answers, simplify results, distinguish improper fractions from other forms, and attend to repeating digit patterns. It is a free printable worksheet with an answer key for Grade 8 math practice, independent work, review, or a short formative assessment.

This Grade 8 worksheet practices converting terminating and repeating decimals into fractions, simplifying the results, and writing one result as an improper fraction. Its five multiple-choice and five fill-in-the-blank questions require students to recognize repeating patterns, select or produce equivalent fraction forms, and continue a decimal sequence by identifying the next five digits.
Begin by reviewing how terminating decimals can be written over powers of 10 and simplified, then model the place-value subtraction method for a repeating decimal. Use the worksheet’s item that asks students to identify a repeating decimal before assigning the conversion questions, and have students explain why their denominator matches the length of the repeating pattern. Finish by discussing the improper-fraction prompt and the item requiring the next five digits.
Students may write a terminating decimal over the wrong power of 10, stop before simplifying, or confuse a simplified fraction with an improper fraction. For repeating decimals, watch for missing a repeated digit when forming the equation or using a denominator with the wrong number of 9s. Students may also copy the decimal pattern incorrectly in the next-five-digits item or fail to select every correct choice in the multiple-select question.
Wayground provides this decimal-to-fraction worksheet as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz, so you can choose paper practice or online completion. It includes a complete answer key for checking the multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, and multiple-select responses. Printable submissions can be graded by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app.
In the worksheet’s Advanced Settings, adjust font spacing or choose a larger font size to give the fraction-conversion prompts and decimal patterns more visual room. You can also enable a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language, which may make the fill-in-the-blank and repeating-pattern items easier to access.
