To recognise, classify and represent fractions (positive numbers) (Page 2/2)

Page 2 / 2

Did you know?

$\frac{2}{5}$	is a proper fraction. The numerator is smaller than the denominator.
$\frac{9}{4}$	is an improper fraction. The numerator is bigger than the denominator.
$1 \frac{2}{3}$	is a mixed number . A mixed number is always bigger than 1 and consists of a whole number (1) plus a fraction ( $\frac{2}{3}$ ).

Activity 3:

To calculate by means of computations that are suitable to be used in adding ordinary fractions [lo 1.8.3]

1. Can you still remember how to add fractions? Let us see. Work together with a friend. Take turns to say the answers. Choose any two fractions and add them. Give your answer first as an improper fraction and then as a mixed number.

Ask your teacher’s help if you struggle.

1.2

Activity 4:

To recognise and use equivalent forms [lo 1.5.1]

1. Look carefully at the following questions and then complete them as neatly as possible.

EQUIVALENT FRACTIONS

1.1 Colour $\frac{1}{2}$ of the figure in blue:

1.2 Colour $\frac{2}{4}$ of the figure in green:

1.3 Colour $\frac{4}{8}$ of the figure in yellow:

1.4 Colour $\frac{8}{16}$ of the figure in red:

What do you notice?

1.6 Complete:

Did you know?

We call fractions that are equal in size, equivalent fractions. The word equivalent means ‘the same as’ . Thus the fractions are equal.

Do you remember?

2. The following activity will prepare you for the addition and subtraction of fractions. Use your knowledge of equivalent fractions and answer the following. Where you are in doubt, use the diagram above.

2.1: $\frac{1}{2} = \frac{\dots}{10}$

2.2: $\frac{2}{3} = \frac{\dots}{6}$

2.3: $\frac{\dots}{5} = \frac{8}{10}$

2.4: $\frac{1}{4} = \frac{\dots}{12}$

2.5: $\frac{5}{\dots} = \frac{10}{12}$

2.6: $\frac{4}{10} = \frac{\dots}{5}$

2.7: $\frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{\dots}$

2.8: $\frac{\dots}{6} = \frac{1}{2}$

2.9: $\frac{3}{6} = \frac{\dots}{12}$

2.10: $\frac{4}{6} = \frac{\dots}{9}$

Assessment

Learning outcomes(LOs)

LO 1
Numbers, Operations and RelationshipsThe learner is able to recognise, describe and represent numbers and their relationships, and counts, estimates, calculates and checks with competence and confidence in solving problems.
Assessment standards(ASs)

We know this when the learner:
1.1 counts forwards and backwards fractions;
1.2 describes and illustrates various ways of writing numbers in different cultures (including local) throughout history;
1.3 recognises and represents the following numbers in order to describe and compare them: common fractions to at least twelfths;
1.5 recognises and uses equivalent forms of the numbers listed above, including:
1.5.1 common fractions with denominators that are multiples of each other;
1.6 solves problems in context including contexts that may be used to build awareness of other Learning Areas, as well as human rights, social, economic and environmental issues such as: financial (including buying and selling, profit and loss, and simple budgets);
LO 5

lack electricity and its more savely than electronic microscope because its naturally by using of light

Abdullahi Reply

advantage of electronic microscope is easily and clearly while disadvantage is dangerous because its electronic. advantage of light microscope is savely and naturally by sun while disadvantage is not easily,means its not sharp and not clear

in what situation (s) would be the use of a scanning electron microscope be ideal and why?

Kenna Reply

A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is ideal for situations requiring high-resolution imaging of surfaces. It is commonly used in materials science, biology, and geology to examine the topography and composition of samples at a nanoscale level. SEM is particularly useful for studying fine details,
