I would use fractions in the real world for pizza. Pizza can be sliced in 8 slices or less. If you count them up, you would have 8/8, 4/4, 2/2, or 1 whole. Thats when I would use fractions in the real world

Yes you would. In almost everyone's life they see fractions and decimals. In my life and others we can conclude that money involves decimals. In my life, because my dads a stone carver, I see fractions in his work.

What do you use factions for in the real world? Well what if you wanted to cut a cupcake in 3 equal peices (this has happend to me)? What if you wanted to divide 20 people in 5 equal groups? Thats what I would use factions in real life.

I would find decimals and fractions many places in the real world. For example: money has decimals and fractions, rulers and measuring include decimals and fractions that are only a few of the many things that have decimals and fractions.

fractions are used all the time in your life not only in school, but in the world around you. Like sharing with your friend or someone else. It could be food, or anything else that can be split up. Even time can be split into fractions. Decimals are also used out of school like when you go to a store, money is used with a decimal. Without decimals and fractions life would be different.
