Multiplying Fractions Use Interwrite Tools

Finding the Volume V = ____ units x ____ units x ____ units How many layers of 6 cubes are in the prism? How many layers of 8 cubes are there? How many layers of 12 cubes are there?

Application Problem The Colliers want to put new flooring in a 6 ½ foot by 7 1/3 foot bathroom. The tiles they want come in 12-inch squares. What is the area of the bathroom floor? If the tiles cost $3.25 per square foot, how much will they spend on the flooring? Let’s draw out what this problem is saying!

Application Problem ~ ANSWER! The Colliers want to put new flooring in a 6 ½ foot by 7 1/3 foot bathroom. The tiles they want come in 12-inch squares. What is the area of the bathroom floor? If the tiles cost $3.25 per square foot, how much will they spend on the flooring?

To review…. We have been finding area by…. Concept Development To review…. We have been finding area by…. Using Ms. Patty Paper to tile the area Using a ruler to measure the lengths and widths Today, we are going to find the most efficient strategy to use to multiply mixed numbers Distributing with the area model Multiplying improper fractions

Problem 1 Find the area of a rectangle 1 1/3 inches x 3 ¾ inches and discuss strategies for solving Let’s break this up into partial products. This is the distributive property! 3 ¾ in *Use interwrite tools to fill in each partial product and then add up!

Let’s find the area of this rectangle again Let’s find the area of this rectangle again. This time we will change the mixed numbers into improper fractions! 1 1/3 in Do you realize that a mixed number is really an addition sentence?! When we convert to an improper fraction, the whole number can be expressed in the unit of the fractional part and then both like fractions added. 3 ¾ in *Use interwrite tools to convert to improper fractions

Which strategy did you find to be more efficient? Why? Distributive property with partial products Changing mixed numbers to improper fractions

Problem 2 Determine when the distributive property or the multiplication of fractions (improper fractions) is more efficient to solve for area 16 ½ in Which strategy do you think might be more efficient to find the area of this rectangle? Turn and talk! 4 ¼ in Partner A find the area using the distributive property Partner B find the area using improper fractions

What is the area? Which strategy was more efficient? 16 ½ in 33 X 17 = 561 = 70 1/8 in2 2 4 8 64 2 4 ¼ in 16/4 = 4 1/8 64 + 2 + 4 + 1/8 = 70 1/8 in2 ** Does it matter which strategy you use to solve the problem?

Problem 2b Find the area of a square with side lengths 3 2/3 m ~ use whichever method you prefer

Work with a partner and use RDW to solve! Problem 3 An 8 inch by 10 inch picture is resting on a mat. Three-fourths inch of the mat shows around the entire edge of the picture. Find the area of the mat not covered by the picture. ¾ in Work with a partner and use RDW to solve! 10 in 8 in

5th Grade Module 5- Lesson 13 LET’S Debrief Take 2 minutes to check your answers with your partner. Let’s share any insights you had while solving these problems. What are the strategies that we have used to find the area of a rectangle? Which one do you find the easiest? The most difficult? How do you decide which strategy you will use for a given problem? What kinds of things do you think about when deciding? In the Problem Set, when did you use the distributive property and when did you multiply improper fractions? How did you solve Problem 3? What are some situations in real life where finding the area of something would be needed or useful? 5th Grade Module 5- Lesson 13 K. Clauson
