I still teach in Gorton. Done 21 years in Ancoats, Wythenshawe and Gorton.
Taught plenty of fractions ; imperial to metric, metric to imperial.
And was definitely pissed as the proverbial pudding when supervising the Year 6 SATs the day after Serge did his thing.
Still can’t get my head around:
1/3 = 33.33333
2/3 = 66.66666
And you know what comes next!!

correction

.999 recurring is equal to 1 no matter what and can be proved

x=0.9999
10x=9.9999
10x-x=9
9x=9
x=1

in fact any number with a repeated decimal places can be expressed as a rational number
