Mixed ↔ Improper

• Can you write these?• Three halves• One and one half

Mixed ↔ Improper• Multiply the whole

number and the denominator.

• Add the numerator.• The denominator

stays the same.

*Practice on board*

• Divide the numerator by the denominator.

• The quotient(answer) is the new whole number.

• The remainder is the new numerator.

• The denominator stays the same.

Adding/Subtracting Fractions

1. No whole numbers! Change mixed fractions to improper fractions.

2. Are the denominators the same?1. If YES, read step 5.2. If NO, read step 3.

3. For denominators that are not the same, find the Least Common Denominator (LCD).

4. Don’t forget! If you do anything to the denominator, do the same thing to the numerator.

5. Add numerators. Keep denominators the same.6. Simply. Use the Greatest Common Factor

(GFC).

Place Valuesvalores de lugar

Place Values• Place values tell you how much a digit is worth in

a number. Let’s look at the difference between numbers and digits.

• 256 is a number.o How many digits are there?

• 7,945 is a number.o How many digits are there?

DecimalsDecimales

Decimals• Decimals are the digits on the right side of the

decimal point.

• 123,456,789 is a whole number.

• .123456789 is a decimal.

• 123,456,789 .123456789 is a combination of a whole number and a decimal.

Fractions ↔ Decimals

• Fractions ARE LIKE decimals!!
