Comparing Fractions Quiz

Why is it important to use models of the same size when comparing fractions?

• To save paper

• To ensure the fractions are represented accurately

• To make the models look more appealing

• To confuse the students

In the first example, why can the models be used to compare 1/4 and 1/2?

• Because they are both circles

• Because they are both rectangles of the same size

• Because they are both larger than 1/3

• Because they are both smaller than 1

What was the issue with the models used to compare 1/2 and 2/3?

• The models were the same size

• The models were different shapes

• The models were not the same size

• The models were both circles

How can you determine if models can be used to compare fractions?

• By verifying they are both larger than 1

• By making sure they are both circles

• By checking if they are the same color

• By ensuring they represent the same-sized whole

What should you do with models that do not represent the same-sized whole?

• Ignore them

• Color them

• Use them anyway

• Eliminate them
