Learn to estimate sums and differences of fractions and mixed numbers.

1 2 __ You can estimate fractions by rounding to 0, , or 1. The fraction is halfway between and 1, but we usually round up. So the fraction rounds to 1. 3 4 __ 1 2

You can round fractions by comparing the numerator and denominator. 1 2 __ 1 • • closer to Each numerator is about half the denominator, so the fractions are close to . 1 2 __ closer to 1 Each numerator is about the same as the denominator, so the fractions are close to 1. closer to 0 Each numerator is much less than half the denominator, so the fractions are close to 0. 1 5 __ 2 11 __ 2 15 __ 5 11 __ 4 7 __ 9 20 __ 9 10 __ 16 19 __ 6 7 __ 1 2 __
