Learning Target: I can find the sum and difference of fractions and mixed numbers with like denominators.
Learning Target: I can find the sum and difference of fractions and mixed numbers with like denominators.
Task: Determine the sum or difference for each situation. Write in your math notebook to show your work and the answer. Turn improper fractions into proper fractions.
USE A MODEL FOR 1 ADDITION & 1 SUBTRACTION EQUATION. ALL OTHERS, USE STANDARD ALGORITHM.
NOTEBOOK STEPS:
1) Write number sentence sideways as shown.
2) Rewrite SUBTRACTION problems vertically lining up whole number part and fractional part.
3) Solve. Turn improper fractions into proper fractions/mixed numbers.
4) Write sum or difference in number sentence to make it an equation.
A. 8/12 + 11/12 B. 4 5/10 + 3 2/10 C. 2 13/15 + 11 6/15
D. 1 6/8 + 7/8 E. 1 5/6 - 3/6 F. 1 5/12 - 9/12
