Today we learned about Fractions

All fractions can be expressed (shown, writen) in the form a over b

*Fractions represent part of a whole.*
e.g. I have four coins one penny and three nickels therefore one coin is a penny and three coins are nickels (one over four).

A fraction is made up with a numerator (top number) and a denominator (bottom number)

There are three types of fractions
-Proper fraction numerator less than denominator
e.g. 1 over 2 , 9 over 10 , 49 over 69 more than 0
less than 1

-Improper fractions numerator greater then denominator
e.g. 3 over 2 , 9 over 8 , 6 over 4 more than 1

-mixed fractions is a whole number and a proper fraction

  3. Nice post Yvanno. Your post looks neat but next time don't use yellow because it is a little hard to see. Other than that it was a nice post.

  10. Nice post Yvanno! I liked how you changed the colors of some of the numbers, but next time don't use yellow, because it's hard to see. Pictures would have been helpful too. Also make sure your link is not to a video, but to a site.
