Objectives LO: I can convert improper fractions to mixed numbers and vice versa using diagrams.

Steps to Success convert – to change from one form to another mixed number – a whole number and a fraction improper fraction – a fraction larger than one whole; the numerator is larger than the denominator

Improper Fractions A fraction in which the numerator is greater than the denominator. They are BIG HEADED!! 8 = 4

Write the improper fraction: Numerator.. How many parts do we have in total? 7 4 = Denominator.. How many parts as EACH whole been split into?

Write the improper fraction: Numerator.. How many parts do we have in total? 11 2 = Denominator.. How many parts as EACH whole been split into?

1 Mixed Numbers 3 = 4 They’re a bit mixed up! A mixed number has a part that is a whole and a part that is a fraction. They’re a bit mixed up! 3 1 = 4

Write the mixed number: How many wholes are there? How many fractions/parts are there? 1 3 = 2

Write the mixed number: How many wholes are there? How many fractions/parts are there? 2 2 = 3

CHANGE: A mixed number to Improper Fraction Multiply the whole number by the denominator Add your answer to the numerator Put that number on top of the denominator 1 5 2 = 2 2 The denominator always stays the SAME!

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: 1) Multiply 2) Add 3) On top! 1 9 4 2 2

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: 1) Multiply 2) Add 3) On top! 2 11 3 3 3

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: 2 12 2 5 5
