Fractions in Action

A great resource for any math teacher covering multiples, factors or square roots; this worksheet walks young mathematicians through the logic behind factoring and square roots with a systematic set of problems which gradually increase...

Have your class demonstrate their ability to compare fractions with this short multiple-choice assessment. Using the fractions 9/8 and 9/4, the students first make comparisons using both words and the greater than/less than signs. Next,...

Develop young mathematicians' ability to compare fractions with investigation into the number 1/2. After brainstorming a list of fractions equivalent to 1/2, children identify a pattern in the numerators and...

This fractions PowerPoint defines and gives examples of multiples and least common multiple, then models how to list multiples and circle the least common multiple. Each step to use in subtracting fractions with unlike denominators is...

Sal compares two fractions containing uncommon denominators. He analyzes both fractions using prime factorization. Note: This video may be confusing for learners who struggle or are new to the concept. It would be best used for...

Follow along as the instructor demonstrates how to subtract a whole number from a fraction. First, she changes the whole number to a fraction. Then she finds the least common denominator of the two fractions. Finally, she does the...

Use the least common denominator to solve rational equations with variables in the denominators of algebraic fractions. Learners can watch this video to find out how to do just this! An instructor solves 2 problems by finding the least...

Put fractions with different original denominators in order using the least common denominator. Once she has shown how to find the least common denominator, an instructor constructs equivalent fractions that are more easily compared to...

How can you tell if two fractions are equal or different when they have different denominators? Watch this video to find out! A tutorial on common denominators, this video explains each step necessary to find common denominators, create...

Cover the least common multiple with this tutorial. A decent video that shows the steps necessary for finding the least common multiple among three numbers, this resource could prove useful in or out of class. You might give this to...
