On a blank piece of white paper please answer the following.
1. Fractions are relations-- the size or amount of the whole matters.
2. Fractions may represent division with a quotient less than 1.
3. With unit fractions , the greater the denominator the smaller the piece is.
Mr. Harbeck, can you help . . us alot of people are asking about how to do this and im not sure either. What do you mean fractions are relations-- and stuff cause im stuck on number 1
ReplyDeleteOla David. Nice question. The second part of the statement mentioned something about amounts. think back to what we have been talking about subs. That is enough of a clue. Thanks for commenting.Remember to use the chat box but leaving a comment goes to my mail.
ReplyDeleteSo do we just explain it on the paper we folded today in class or can we write as a comment?
ReplyDeleteI would love you to leave it as a comment but you need to do it on the piece of white paper right now. Sorry. We'll do more computer work later.
