Mixed Numbers To Decimals Practice Activities
Printable Class 3 maths worksheets that help children convert mixed numbers into decimals using whole numbers, tenths, hundredths, and place value.
Practice that builds confidence
Building the idea of a mixed number
These Class 3 maths worksheets help children practise changing mixed numbers into decimals. Learners connect a whole number and a fractional part, such as tenths or hundredths, to the decimal form written with a decimal point.
The printable activities include number statements, visual place value support, and mixed practice so children can read, write, and compare forms confidently within the Fractions And Decimals topic.
A mixed number has a whole number part and a fraction part. In this skill, children learn that the whole number stays to the left of the decimal point, while the fraction part is shown to the right. For example, a number like 3 and 4 tenths becomes 3.4 because the 3 is the whole and the 4 is in the tenths place.
Moving from fractions to decimal places
The worksheets focus on the link between familiar fractions and place value. Tenths are written in the first decimal place, and hundredths are written in the second decimal place. Children practise reading the number aloud, identifying the fraction part, and placing each digit carefully so that the value does not change.
A simple parent routine
At home, ask your child to circle the whole number first, underline the fraction part, and say the decimal aloud before writing it. Use everyday examples such as money amounts or measured lengths when they fit the worksheet number. After each page, choose two answers and ask, “Which part shows the whole? Which digit shows the fraction?” This keeps the focus on meaning, not just the final answer.
Classroom uses for teachers
Teachers can use these printables after introducing decimals on a place value chart, as guided practice in maths groups, or for revision within Fractions And Decimals. They also work well for quick checks: one section can show who understands tenths, while another can reveal whether children are ready for hundredths or need more model-based practice.
Common errors to watch for
Some children write the numerator after the decimal without checking the denominator. Others may move the whole number to the wrong side of the decimal point or add extra zeroes without understanding why. Encourage children to name the place value: tenths for one digit after the decimal, hundredths for two digits after the decimal.

Why iBloom worksheets help
The practice is arranged to build confidence step by step, from recognising the parts of a mixed number to writing the matching decimal. A child-friendly strategy is: “Keep the whole, place the point, write the fraction by its place.” This short routine helps learners slow down, check position, and understand the decimal they have written.
Helpful answers
Frequently asked questions
What does converting a mixed number to a decimal mean?
It means writing the whole number and the fraction part together in decimal form. For example, a whole number with tenths is written with the tenths digit after the decimal point.
Are these worksheets suitable for Class 3 maths?
Yes. They are written for Class 3 learners working on Fractions And Decimals, with practice that connects mixed numbers, decimal notation, and place value.
Which decimal places should my child understand first?
Children should first understand tenths, then move to hundredths. This helps them see why one digit or two digits may appear after the decimal point.
How can I help if my child writes the decimal digits in the wrong place?
Ask your child to mark the whole number, say the fraction part as tenths or hundredths, and then use a place value chart before writing the decimal.
Can these worksheets be used for revision before a test?
Yes. They are useful for revising how mixed numbers, fractions, and decimals are connected, especially when children need extra practice with decimal place value.
