Rules for Mixed to Improper Step 1: Multiply the whole number with the denominator. Step 2: Take the answer from step 1 and add it to the numerator. Step 3: Take the answer from step 2 and put it over the original denominator. Ex) 2 3 = 2 x 5 = 10 + 3 = 15 5 5

Mixed to Improper 6 1/3 2 1/5 3 2/7 8 1/2

Answers to Mixed to Improper: 9/3 11/5 23/7 17/2

Changing Improper to Mixed Numbers Step 1: Divide the denominator into the numerator. Step 2. The quotient is now your Whole number; the remainder is now your numerator and the divisor is now your denominator. Ex) 18 ÷ 5 = 5 18 15 3 Answer: 3 3 5 3 Whole number Denominator numerator

Adding and Subtracting with like denominators Step 1: The denominators are the same then just bring the denominator straight down Step2: Then add or subtract the numerators Step 3: Simplify your answer Ex) 9 + 7 = 16 ÷ 2 = 8 = 1 3 10 10 10 ÷ 2 5 5

Adding and Subtracting with Like denominators 3/8 + 5/8 = 10/12 – 4/12 = 9/11 + 8/11 = 10/15 - 1/15 =

Adding and Subtracting with like denominators answer 8/8 = 1 6/12 = ½ 17/11 = 1 6/11 9/15 = 3/5

Adding and Subtracting Mixed Numbers 1 - 9/10 = 37 13/18 - 24 7/18 = 2 3/10 + 4 1/10 = 7 3/5 + 9 2/5 =

Adding and Subtracting Mixed Numbers answer: 1/10 13 6/18 = 13 1/3 6 4/10 = 6 2/5 16 5/5 = 16 + 1 = 17

Renaming to Subtract 2 ½ - 1 ¾ = 8 2/9 - 2 7/9 = 3 2/6 - 1 2/3 = 2 ½ - 1 ¾ = 8 2/9 - 2 7/9 = 3 2/6 - 1 2/3 = 7 ¼ - 4 11/12 =

Adding and Subtracting with Unlike denominators ¾ - ½ = 1/6 + 5/12 = 5/6 - ¾ = ½ + 3/7 =

Adding and Subtracting Mixed Numbers with Unlike Denominators 7 1/12 + 3 1/3 = 2 1/6 + 2 3/8 = 8 5/6 - 2 ¾ = 6 6/7 - 1 ½ =

Comparing Fractions When comparing fractions we use the butterfly method. You go diagonally across from the denominator to the numerator and multiply and put the number at the top of the numerator and compare those numbers. 5 7 9 27 < 35

Multiplying Mixed Numbers Step 1: Change all mixed numbers into improper fractions Step 2: Multiply the numerators Step 3: Multiply the denominators Step 4: Simplify if necessary Ex) 1 3 x 2 4 = 8 x 10 = 80 ÷ 5 = 16 = 5 1 5 3 5 3 15 ÷ 5 3 3

Multiplying with Mixed Numbers

Multiplying with mixed numbers answer: 24/21 = 8/7 = 1 1/7 160/ 45 = 32/9 = 3 5/9 230/ 24 = 115/12 = 9 7/12 35/4 = 8 3/4

Reciprocal To find the reciprocal of a number you are just flipping the fraction. The denominator becomes the numerator and the numerator becomes the denominator. Ex) 3 = 5 5 3
