If you have unlike denominators :
2 3/4 - 1 1/4
One method use fraction strips
* Second method = Subtract whole numbers
Answer the following :
a) 2 2/3 - 1 1/3 =
2 - 1 = 1
2/3 - 1/3 = 1/3
1 1/3
b) 3 7/8 - 1 3/8 =
3 - 1 = 2
7/8 - 3/8 = 4/8
2 4/8
Lowest terms = 2 2/4, 2 1/2
c) 4 3/4 - 1/4 =
3/4 - 1/4= 2/4
4 2/4
Lowest terms - 4 1/2
Unlike Denominators
- Find the common denominator
We don't want to have a whole number (2) and a negative fraction so we must regroup
* ANOTHER WAY TO REGROUP
Steps :
1. Subtract the whole numbers
2. Subtract fractions
3. Combine them
Answer the following ; a ) 4 1/4 - 3 2/5
b) 4 1/4 - 7/8

Excellent Job Allison! I like your scribepost it is really neat and clear to read but you should space things out a bit more. Next time try to remember to put a link and a video to help us out more. I really liked your pictures they are very nice and neat! Great Job on not using to much color. Overall Excellent Job ! (:
ReplyDeleteGreat Job Allison! I like how you made the font size nice and big to see. Your images were also very well done! I think you got pretty much all the notes we did today! Next time you should try and add a link and/or video, but other than that, you did a very good job! :)
ReplyDeleteGood Job Allison. Your scribe is really organized. I liked how you used different colours for the important words. At first I didn't get what Mr. Isfeld wrote on the overhead but when I read yours I understood it. Your scribe could be improved by adding a link and a video to explain more about Subtracting mixed numbers. I really liked your pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteAnyways good job!
Good job Allison, this was a very organized scribe. I liked your use of colours and your picture were really neat. I think you got every notes we needed for today. Next time try to add a link and or a website it could've been better with those but really great job, keep it up. (:
