Good evening to all,
Today in math we are looking into everyones favorite concepts- FRACTIONS!!! And just to add a bit of spice- we are looking at COMPLEX FRACTIONS!!
I bet you can hardly wait for all this fun!
That aside, fractions are everywhere and we need to make them our FRIENDS! There are 4 operations for fractions- add, subtract, multiply, or divide. Adding and subtracting fractions follow similar rules as well as multiplying and dividing- they follow similar rules. In this section, we will be looking at the multiplying and dividing fractions and their rules. I find that these 2 operations are far easier than the adding and subtracting as you do not need to find common denominators. Complex fractions are fractions inside fractions!!! Don't panic as this becomes fairly easy after a bit of practice.
For homework, READ the blog, take notes in your graphic organizer, Complete your vocabulary term and definition on for 1.2.
As always in MATH,
Mrs M
