Fourth Grade | Numbers and Operations: Multiplication of Fractions

Standard:  CC.2.1.4.C.2, M04.A-F.2.1.5, M04.A-F.2.1.6, M04.A-F.2.1.7  Build fractions from unit fractions by applying and extending previous understandings of operations on whole numbers. Multiply a whole number by a unit fraction (denominators limited to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100 and final answers do not need to be simplified or written as a mixed number). Example: 5 × (1/4) = 5/4. Multiply a whole number by a non-unit fraction (denominators limited to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100 and final answers do not need to be simplified or written as a mixed number). Solve word problems involving multiplication of a whole number by a fraction (denominators limited to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100).
