Name the 3 Parts of a Division Problem
Dividend/Divisor=Quotient
What Operations do you use to Convert...
1) Mixed Number --> Improper Fraction
2) Improper Fractions -->Mixed Number
1) Multiply & Add
2) Divide & Subtract
a) Subtract the Fractions --> 10/15 - 4/15
or
b) Add the Fractions --> 2/5 + 3/5
a) 6/15
b) 5/5 = 1
If you find a Recipe that makes enough for 5 people, but you will need to Cook for 9 people, how would you find the right amount of each Ingredient?
*What Calculations would you use? Will the Ingredients get bigger or smaller?
Multiply each Ingredient by 9/5, then simplify.
*Ingredients will get bigger.
Name 2 different strategies that can be used to Find Common Denominators.
1) Change only 1 of the Denominators
2) Find Least Common Denominator
3) Multiply Fraction by other Fractions Denominator
Give a Real-Life example of when it might be better to use a Mixed Number & Improper Fraction
