Let’s Review
We know that equivalent fractions show equal amounts.
= = = = =
This could go on forever!
How do I decide which equivalent fraction to use?

Let’s Review
Whole numbers can be decomposed as fractions or mixed numbers.

= =
The possibilities are endless!

Let’s Review
Mixed numbers like 1 can be decomposed into their individual parts.
1
= +

A Common MisunderstandingForgetting to decompose.
≠
4 - 1 = 24 - 1≠ 3

Core Lesson
Think about cookies.
I need to subtract
Mom says I can eat the cookies if I give my sister
of a cookie.
I’ll cut just one cookie making two halves.
I don’t want to cut all the cookies.
Now I have 2 + I can easily subtract .
3 = 2
2 cookies

14 I need to take
away one half, but the
minuend isn’t divided in
halves.
I will use an equivalent fraction.
=
I need to subtract from 2
I need to decompose into more pieces.
I will decompose one of the wholes
into .
When one denominator is a
divisor of the other, only one fraction
has to be changed.
