What are Fractions?

It is written in the form of


a/b, where:
- a is the numerator
A fraction represents a
(number of parts you
part of a whole.
have),
- b is the denominator
(total parts in the whole).

Examples:
- 1/2 (half)
- 3/4 (three-quarters)
Types of Fractions

- Proper Fractions:
Numerator is smaller
There are three types than the denominator
of fractions: (e.g., 3/7).

- Improper Fractions:
- Mixed Fractions: A Numerator is greater
whole number than or equal to the
combined with a denominator (e.g.,
proper fraction (e.g., 2 7/4).
1/3).
Converting Improper Fractions
to Mixed Fractions
Steps:

1. Divide the numerator


by the denominator.

2. The quotient becomes


the whole number.

3. The remainder
becomes the new
numerator.

Example: Convert 7/4 to


a mixed fraction: 7 ÷ 4
= 1 remainder 3 → 1 3/4.

denominators.
Simplifying Fractions

Steps to Simplify:

1. Find the greatest common divisor


(GCD) of the numerator and
denominator.

2. Divide both the numerator and


denominator by the GCD.

Example: Simplify 8/12: GCD of 8 and 12


is 4, so 8 ÷ 4 = 2, 12 ÷ 4 = 3 →
Simplified form: 2/3.
Rules:

Adding - Same Denominator: Add or


and subtract the numerators and keep
the denominator the same.
Subtracti - Different Denominators: Find the
least common denominator (LCD),
ng adjust the fractions, then
add/subtract.
Fractions Example: 1/4 + 1/2 = (1/4 + 2/4) =
3/4.
Multiplying Fractions

STEPS: 1. MULTIPLY THE 2. MULTIPLY THE

TOGETHER. TOGETHER.

EXAMPLE: 2/3 × 4/5


= (2 × 4)/(3 × 5) =
8/15.
Dividing Fractions

Steps:

1. Multiply the first


fraction by the
reciprocal of the
second fraction.

Example: 2/3 ÷ 4/5 =


2/3 × 5/4 = 10/12 =
5/6 (after
simplification).
Fractions in Daily Life

Real-life examples - Cooking and - Finance:


of using fractions: Recipes: Using Calculating interest

ingredients. and investments.

- Time:
Understanding
fractions in time
(e.g., quarter of an
hour).
Try solving these problems:

1. Simplify 15/45.

Class 2. Add 3/4 and 5/8.

Work 3. Convert 9/5 into a mixed


fraction.

4. Multiply 2/7 by 3/5.
