Comparing and Ordering Fractions: Part I Challenge

This video tutorial explains how to compare and order fractions. It covers examples where fractions have the same denominator, the same numerator, and different numerators and denominators. The tutorial uses visual aids like pizza slices to illustrate the concepts and demonstrates how to find a common denominator to compare fractions effectively.

Which fraction represents the smallest portion of pizza when all denominators are the same?

• 4/8

• 7/8

• 3/8

• 2/8

If all fractions have the same numerator, which fraction represents the smallest portion?

• 2/10

• 2/8

• 2/3

• 2/6

What does a larger denominator in a fraction indicate about the size of the pieces?

• The same size pieces

• Irrelevant to the size

• Larger pieces

• Smaller pieces

Which fraction is the largest when comparing 2/10, 2/8, 2/6, and 2/3?

• 2/6

• 2/3

• 2/10

• 2/8

Which fraction represents the largest portion when all fractions have the same numerator of 2?

• 2/3

• 2/6

• 2/8

• 2/10

To compare fractions with different denominators, what common element should they be converted to?

• Least common multiple

• Common numerator

• Greatest common divisor

• Least common denominator

What is the correct order from smallest to largest for the fractions 2/3, 1/2, and 5/6?

• 1/2, 2/3, 5/6

• 2/3, 1/2, 5/6

• 5/6, 1/2, 2/3

• 2/3, 5/6, 1/2

How do you find the least common denominator for fractions 2/3, 1/2, and 5/6?

• Add all denominators

• Find the smallest number divisible by all denominators

• Subtract the smallest denominator from the largest

• Multiply all denominators

After finding the least common denominator, what should be done next?

• Add all fractions

• Convert all fractions to have this denominator

• Reduce all fractions

• Multiply all fractions

What does the process of equalizing denominators help achieve in fraction comparison?

• Simplifying numerators

• Making fractions easier to add

• Facilitating direct comparison

• Reducing fractions to their simplest form
