Calculating with Fractions

Things to remember:
 If you have a mixed number, start by converting it to an improper fraction.
 Multiply fractions is easy – just multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators.
 To divide fractions, flip the second fraction upside-down and multiply instead.
 If you need to add or subtract fractions, you will need to start by finding equivalent fractions
with a common denominator.
 Make sure you leave your answer in its simplest form.
 To convert a recurring decimal to a fraction you will need to multiply by 10n, where n is the
number of recurring digits. Then subtract the original number from the new one. Rearrange
to find the fraction.

Histograms

Things to remember:
 Frequency = Frequency Density x Class Width;
 The y-axis will always be labelled “frequency density”;
 The x-axis will have a continuous scale.
