360 Learning 1.Work with your Learning Team to solve your problems. 2.Your grade is dependent on ALL members of team contributing 100% and ALL members of the team learning ALL objectives. 3.You may not work ahead individually, you must stay with your team. 4.You are ALL responsible for each member understanding the content. 5.Stay focused and have fun.

Module 2 – Lesson 7 Lesson Topic: The Relationship Between Visual Fraction Models and Equations Lesson Objectives: I can… Formally connect models of fractions to multiplication through the use of multiplicative inverses. I can use models to work through these problems.

Opening Exercise: 3/4 and 4/3 are multiplicative inverses of one another because 3/4 x 4/3 = 4/3 x 3/4 = 1. Now as a group come up with several (3 or more) examples of multiplicative inverses.

3/4 ÷ 2/5 2/5 of what number is 3/4? 1.Use a model to solve. 2.Check with multiplication. Example 1:

Example 2 How many groups of 1/4 are in 2/3? 2/3 ÷ 1/4. Solve using a model and check with multiplication.

Independent Exercises: 1.4/5 ÷ 1/2 2.6/7 ÷ 1/3 3. 2/3 ÷ 1/3

Closing When you divide by a fraction, it is equivalent to multiplying by its reciprocal (or multiplicative inverse).
