Equivalent Fractions

2. Bell Ringer
Solve by converting the following fractions to have like denominators:
1/3 + 2/4
3/4 - 1/5
1/10 (< , > or =) ¾
Be the Teacher…
“Teach” your table partner how to convert to like denominators :0)

3. Review Homework Review your answers with your table partner.
What problems would you like to work out on the board?

4. What are we learning today?
