A bunch of 5th grade kids taught you how to convert decimals to fractions?
... I really don't think my syntax is that unclear.
Well, strictly speaking your syntax is ambiguous, though of course there's no real ambiguity about what you meant.
Still, it would be awesome if you'd gotten a bunch of 5th grade kids to teach you how to convert decimals to fractions. My fifth-grade teacher got me to teach her how to convert from decimal to binary once; it was a great pedagogic tool.
Also, yay you for teaching kids math!
Tough crowd.
I guess that was supposed to be a joke.
