4. To learn proper and improper fractions and mixed numbers To write equivalent fractions To express fractions in their simplest form To compare and order fractions To add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers with like or unlike denominators To multiply and divide fractions and mixed numbers

5. Vocabulary – Proper Fraction – Improper Fraction – Mixed Number -

6. Shade each shape using the given fraction. What part is shaded red?

7. TO change an improper fraction to a mixed number, DIVIDE

8. To change a mixed number to an IMPROPER FRACTION Step 1: Multiply the WHOLE NUMBER by the DENOMINATOR Step 2: ADD the NUMERATOR

9. Lesson 1 & 2 – Proper, Improper and Mixed Numbers Homework: Pg. 85 1-10, Pg. 89 2-34 EVEN

10. Name the same amount but have different numerators and denominators. =

11. ==

12. = =

13. 1 2 =

14. 3 4 =

15. 2 3 =

16. 1 2 ==

17. 1 2 = =

18. 1 2 =

19. 3 4 =

20. 2 3 =

21. Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number. 1 3 3 9 x =

22. Divide the numerator and the denominator by the same number. 4 12 1 3 ÷ =

23. Lesson 3 – Equivalent Fractions Homework: Pg. 91-93 #1-20

24. First, lets recall finding the GCD (Greatest common Divisor) GCD (9,21) GCD (10,15) GCD (30,36)

25. Express each fraction in lowest terms using the GCD method.

26. Lesson 4 – Simplest Form Homework: Pg. 95 #1-25 Tomorrow: QUIZ 1 st Team Meeting

27. Activity – Creating fraction strips. 1 st – Fold your paper in half. Label the crease ½. 2 nd – Fold your paper into halves twice. Label these ¼ and ¾. 3 rd – Fold your paper into fifths. Continue as instructed…

28. In order to compare and order fractions, they need to have the same denominator. To change unlike fractions to like fractions we use MULTIPLICATION and LCM (Least Common Multiple).

30. Lesson 5 – Comparing and Ordering Fractions Homework: Pg. 98-99 #1-25

31. Important Side Notes: In algebra, 1x and x are the same value. You will see several letters written without the 1 present. 1m = m 1p = p K = 1k X = 1x Recall that the fraction bar that separates a numerator from a denominator means “DIVIDE”

32. When fractions have the same denominator, all you have to do is ADD or SUBTRACT the numerator.

36. Lesson 6 & 7 – Like and Unlike Denominators Homework: Pg 102-103 #2-24 even Pg. 106-107 #2-24 even

40. Lesson 8 – Subtracting Fractions with Regrouping Homework: Pg 109 1-20 Tomorrow: QUIZ 2 nd Team Meeting

41. Quick Recap: Changing Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions:

42. Unlike addition and subtraction, when you multiply fractions: you DO NOT NEED a common denominator. you DO NOT write them up and down. you DO MULTIPLY LEFT TO RIGHT! Numerators and Denominators. ALWAYS SIMPLIFY

44. Lesson 9 – Multiplying Fractions and Mixed Numbers Homework: Pg 111 1-25

45. Vocabulary – Reciprocal – the reciprocal of any non-zero number 3 is 1/3, sometimes called the multiplicative inverse of that number. What is the reciprocal of ½? What the is reciprocal of y/3? What is the reciprocal of 5?

46. 1 st – Always make sure that you change any mixed numbers to improper fractions. 2 nd – always reciprocate the 2 nd fraction, and multiply. 3 rd – You may have to SIMPLIFY. DO NOT LEAVE any IMPROPER FRACTIONS!
