Freddy Fraction is a FREE app that uses equivalent fractions and decimals and percents.
Students have to get the bee to the honey pot by dragging the bee to the fraction next to them that is equivalent to the decimal in the top right corner. In this case, the decimal is .88 and the equivalent fraction is 7/8. One downfall of this game is it rounds decimals to the hundreths. So while my students know that 7/8 is equivalent to 0.875, this game rounds that decimal.
I like that the app doesn't just use the simplified fraction and uses equivalent fractions as well.
As the game progresses, percents are added and the path to the honey pot gets longer.
