Reciprocal and Mixed Number Operations

The video tutorial covers the division of mixed numbers, emphasizing its connection to multiplication. It begins with an introduction to the topic, followed by a bell question to reinforce the reciprocal concept. Students engage in a 'commit and toss' activity to apply their understanding, followed by individual practice and peer review. The lesson concludes with a reflection on real-world applications and a summary of key points.
