Fractions are just division problems.
Write the following: Fractions are just _____ problems.
The fraction bar represents the division sign (÷).
Write the following: The _____ _____ represents the division sign (÷).
1) Multiply the denominator (bottom number) times the whole number. 2) Add the numerator (top number) 3) Use that number as the new numerator and keep the original denominator. 3 ²/₅ = ¹⁷/₅ because: 3 ²/₅ = (3 x 5) + 2 15 + 2 17 = ¹⁷/₅
Write the steps for turning a mixed number into an improper fraction: (You may use copy/paste) 1) _____ the denominator ( _____ number) times the whole number. 2) _____ the numerator (top number) 3) Use that number as the new _____ and keep the original _____. 3 ²/₅ = ¹⁷/₅ because: 3 ²/₅ = ( __ x __ ) + __ __ + ___ ___ = ¹⁷/₅
1) Divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). 2) The number you get (from step 1) will be your whole number. 3) The remainder (number left over) will by your new numerator. 4) Keep the original number as your denominator. ¹⁷/₅ = 3 ²/₅ because: ¹⁷/₅ = 17 ÷ 5 = 3 with 2 left over. 3 ²/₅
Write the steps for turning an improper into a mixed number: (You may use copy/paste) 1) _____ the numerator ( _____ number) by the denominator ( _____ number). 2) The number you get (from step 1) will be your _____ number. 3) The _____ (number left over) will by your new numerator. 4) _____ the original number as your denominator. ¹⁷/₅ = 3 ²/₅ because: ¹⁷/₅ = ___ ÷ 5 = 3 with ___ left over. 3 ²/₅
