Addition of Fractions

Addition of Fractions requires you to complete multiple steps in order to solve the problem.

Step 1- Check to see if denominators are the same.

Step 2- If the same- add the top and bottom numbers together

Step 3- Simplify/Reduce to lowest term using GCF

Step 4- If different denominators, you will need to use the Least Common Factor to find a number to make the bottom number or you can keep one of the numbers- as long as it is a factor of both numbers

Step 5- Solve like regular addition of fractions problem

Step 6- Simplify/Reduce to lowest term using GCF.

​Rational Numbers

• ​Rational Numbers can be terminating or repeating decimals.

• ​Rational Numbers can be fractions, where the denominator is not 0.

​Converting Decimals to Fractions

​Use place value to convert from decimal to fraction form.

Every rational number can be expressed as either a terminating or repeating decimal.

• Terminating - decimal that ends and does not repeat

• Repeating - decimal that has one or more digits that repeat

​When multiplying mixed numbers, convert them to an improper fraction first.

Dividing Fractions

Rule#1 for Dividing Fractions: DON'T DIVIDE.

Instead of dividing you do this procedure:

KEEP, CHANGE, FLIP

What are factors?

• Numbers that you multiply together to make a product

• Products are answers to multiplication problems.

• 3 and 5 are factors of 15 because 3 x 5 =15

• 15 is the product of the FACTORS 3 and 5.

Listing Method

• 16 = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16

• 24 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

• If we will compare the list of factors of 16 and 24, we can identify the common factors.

• GCF is the highest common factor that appears on the list.

• The GCF of 16 and 24 is 8.
