    I’m a lifelong American and neither of these are easy, but the decimals are much more like real numbers to me.

    I encounter decimal points in my day to day interactions with numbers. Not so with fractions.

    I will start learning fractions when restaurants put them in their prices.

    “That will be $4 and 3/4,” said no one ever, thank gob.
