Ashlee's first Growing Post

Which set of fractions is larger 1/2 + 1/6 or 1/4 + 7/12.
1/2+1/6=35/60 & 1/4+7/12=50/60
so 1/4 +7/12 is larger than 1/2+1/6.





2) What we did for this is that every time they said like one sixth of the way , we just took the number 60 and divided it by six. We did not see any patterns.

3) I think this game is a good game because it makes you understand what fractions are and if you go to another level you will end up being really great at it.

4) One way of finding 3/4 of a number is by subtracting.
Example:16-3/4= 15.25, 22-3/4=21.25, 110-3/4=109.25

5) Which set of fractions are larger? 2/4+1/3 or 1/2+1/4
2/4+1/3=45 and 1/2+1/4=40.
2/4+1/3 is bigger.





Title 1/1
Label 1/1
Question 3 4 /5
Question 4&5 3 /3
Question 6 4 /5
Question 7 3 /3
Question 8 4/5
Question 9 4/5
Question 10 6/7

Total 30/35
