Fractions show division - the numerator divided by the denominator equals a number under 1. The size of the whole matters - it's when the sizes are equal. Friendly and unfriendly fractions - friendly fractions are when a fraction can divide equally. unfriendly fractions are when there is a decimal and it keeps repeating.

__** Adding and Subtracting Fractions: **__ Adding or Subtracting Fractions with the same denominator is quite easy right? All you have to do is add or subtract the numerators. Before you can add or subtract fractions with different denominators, you must first find equivalent fractions with the same denominator. 1. Find the smallest multiple (LCM) of both numbers. 2. Rewrite the fractions as equivalent fractions with the LCM as the denominator. When Adding or Subtracting with different denominators you could also use money, clocks or a double number line. __** Multiplying and Dividing Fractions: **__ - 4/5 x 1/4 = 4/20 //( to get the answer all you have to do is multiply the numerators and denominators//) = 2/10 //( simplify if you can)// = **1/5** //(simplify __again__ if you can)// //- 1 2/3 x 2 1/4 = (to get the answer you have to make each mixed fraction into an improper fraction)// 1 2/3 = 3 x 1 + 2 = 5/3 //(the denominator multiplied by the whole number, plus the numerator)// 2 1/4 = 4 x 2 + 1 = 9/4 //( and again... )// 5/3 x 9/4 = 45/12 //(now multiply the numerators and denominators)// =3 9/12 //(make into a mixed fraction)// =**3 3/4** //(simplify if you can)//

When dividing fractions you could use a ratio table.

BLEEDING LOVE - Fractions

VERSE 1: If you want to learn how to add or subtract, even multiply or try to divide all you have to know is the strategies, ooh money, clocks and even a number line use these strategies to help you and remember so you won't become crazy, ooh BRIDGE: And we don't care if its wrong, we're inlove with fractions they tried to pull us away, but they don't know the question we tried really hard to get the answer correct we got the answer right VERSE 2: We're going to explain a question to you the question is one fourth plus one fifth the strategy we're going to use is money first thing you have to do is divide a hundred divided by four is twenty-five and do the same thing to one fifth the answer's twenty CHORUS: we like fractions, we like like fractions, a lot we like fractions, we like like fractions, a lot we like fractions, we like like fractions, a lot we passed the test! BRIDGE: now multiply one fourth by twenty-five and you will get twenty-five over one hundred now do the same thing with one fifth but with twenty its twenty over a hundred REFRAIN: add twenty-five and twenty you get forty-five over one hundred and you have to simplify by dividing by five BRIDGE: and the answer we got is nine over twenty we would like to thank Mr. Harbeck for teaching us the money strategy to help us on our test thanks for teaching us media type="youtube" key="Zw8w9BOtDsQ" width="425" height="350"
