01/08/2010 Fractions.

There are 32 students in the class. One fourth of them are boys. Half of the boys passed the test. Three quarters of the girls passed the test. How many students passed the test? (32 kids all together)
Boys: Girls:
8 24
Passed: Passed:
4 + 18 = 22
*ANSWER: 22 kids passed the test.

Let's go shopping! Louis finds some great deals on dresses and earrings. The dress he bought is 3/5 the original of $60. The earrings were 3/8 the original price of $24. How much is his bill beofre tax? How much after 5% GST and 7% PST?

dress: 60/5= __ x 3 = 36.

earrings: 24/8= __ x 3 = 9.
= 45$ before tax.
45 x 12 = $5.40 (tax)
or ...
45 x 0.12 = $5.40 (tax)
*Your total bill will be $50.40

1/4 + 2/4= 3/4, 0.75, 75%
2/3 + 2/3= 1 1/3 or 4/3.

1/10 of 2/5 of 1/3 of 3/4 of 1/5 of 1/2 of 100.


1000 to, 500 to, 100 to, 75 to, 25 to, 10!

* Remember, to do your HOMEWORK! :)
3/10 + 13/25 + 37/75 = ?

  14. Great job Thessa. I liked how you made the titles in colour. I also liked how everything was well-organized and simple. Good job showing the images. They were very neat. However, your font was a little small and you could've put the blog post title, what we did on that day. Try to post a video and link so that we have more practice. But overall great job.
