True or False? When adding fractions, we need to have common denominators.
True!
The denominators must be the same before we can add.
True or false? When subtracting fractions, we must have common denominators.
True!
The denominators must be the same before we can subtract.
True or false? When multiplying fractions, we must have common denominators.
False!
It does not matter if the denominators are the same. We can multiply anyway.
True or False? When dividing fractions, we must have common denominators.
False!
It does not matter if the denominators are the same. We can divide anyway.
In the fraction 6/7, which number is the NUMERATOR?
a. 6
b. 7
a. 6
1/3 + 1/3 =
2/3
7/8 - 2/8 =
5/8
1/6 x 1/2 =
1/12
-----------
1x1 = 1
6x2 = 12
How can we re-write 1/9 ÷ 4/9 as a MULTIPLICATION problem?
a. 1/9 x 4/9
b. 1/9 x 9/4
c. 9/1 x 4/9
b. 1/9 x 9/4
(multiply by the RECIPROCAL of the second fraction)
5/67 - 5/67 =
0
1/5 + 1/10 =
3/10
---------------------------
1/5 = 2/10
2/10 + 1/10 = 3/10
5/6 - 1/6 =
2/3
-----------------------------
5/6 - 1/6 = 4/6
4/6 = 2/3
2/9 x 1/3 =
1/9
-----------------------------
2/9 x 1/3 = 2/18
2/18 = 1/9
1/6 ÷ 2/3 =
1/4
-------------------------
1/6 x = 3/12
3/12 = 1/4
3/3 + 4/4 =
2
----------------------------------------
3/3 = 1
4/4 = 1
1 + 1 = 2
1/2 + 2/8 =
3/4
------------------------
1/2 = 4/8
4/8 + 2/8 = 6/8
6/8 = 3/4
2/7 - 1/14 =
3/14
-----------------------------------
2/7 = 4/14
4/14 - 1/14 = 3/14
7/8 x 1/2 =
7/16
1/10 ÷ 3/10 =
1/3
----------------------------
1/10 x 10/3 =10/30
10/30 = 1/3
Simplify the following the fraction 6/24
1/4
----------
(divide the top and the bottom by 4)
1/3 + 2/9 + 1/6 =
13/18
--------------------------------------
1/3 = 6/18
2/9 = 4/18
1/6 = 3/18
6/18 + 4/18 + 3/18 =13/18
3/10 - 3/5 =
-3/10
----------------------------
3/5 = 6/10
3/10 - 6/10 = -3/10
1/4 x 2/3 x 3/5 =
1/10
----------------------------------
1 x 2 x 3 = 6
4 x 3 x 5 = 60
6/60 = 1/10
7/9 ÷ 8/9 =
7/8
-----------------------
7/9 x 9/8 = 63/72
63/72 = 7/8
