Fraction FunBy; Alec, Destiny, and Misaiah

What are fractions?O Some people say that factions are

mean and scary. But actually, their quite easy. You just need to know how to use them. All a fraction is, is a part of a whole number. When it comes to adding and subtracting fractions it’s not that hard, it is just time consuming.

Adding FractionsO To me, adding is easy. But, adding

with fractions is even better. Right now were using fractions with like denominators. LIKE denominators is the BOTTOM part of the denominators that are the SAME, all YOU have to do is add the numerators. ( the top part of the fraction)

ExampleO If you are having

trouble with this write this down.

O 2/5 + 2/5

Example

O2/5 + 2/5 O2 + 2= 4 O Since the denominators are the

same, leave them be. Add your numerators, in this case two plus two is four. Your answer is…….

ANSWER

O4/5!

Subtracting FractionsO Basically, subtracting fractions is just

the same as adding them except you subtract, not add write this down,

EXAMPLE 4/5- 3/5= 4-3=1 keep your denominator= 1/5

Adding Fractions with Unlike Denominators

Well, in order to find the answer to adding with unlike denominators is kind of hard to explain, so why don’t you watch it instead?
