Lesson 6.2.1 1
2
Your teacher gave you a fraction card. Draw a model of the fraction. Here’s one example: Describe what your fraction means. The purple section of the model represents 1/5 of the whole. 1515 denominator numerator The model represents a division problem. N ÷ D Fractions are numbers; they can be added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided. 2
3
Think about where your fraction would be located on a number line. Is it greater than ½? Is it less than ½? How does it compare to ¼? ¾? 1515 01 3
4
Describe how the fractions on the cards would be placed in order on the number line. Order all of the fraction cards in your group from least to greatest. 1515 01 4
5
Divisor – the quantity by which another quantity is to be divided. Dividend – a quantity to be divided. 5

Gabriella and her friends are making 6 fruit smoothies. One serving of smoothie needs 2/3 cup of yogurt. How much yogurt do they need in all? = + + + + + = 2323 2323 2323 2323 2323 2323 12 3 = 4 c 6 They will need 4 cups of yogurt in all. Is there another way to solve this problem?

Imagine you have of a cup of frosting to share equally among three desserts. How would we write this as a division question? 2525 Draw a model of two-fifths. Show the model divided into three equal parts. What does this part represent? The visual models show that 2525 2 15 ÷ 3 = of is 1313 2 15 2525 and 10
