We simplify fractions to make reading and working with fractions easier. 1 Circle the simplest fraction in each group: a 1 2 2 4 50 100 b 33 99 3 9 1 3 c 25 100 1 4 5 20 d 2 3 6 9 16 24 To find the simplest fraction, we divide both the numerator and the denominator by the same number. It makes sense for this to be the biggest number we can find so we don’t have to keep dividing. This number is called the Greatest Common Factor (GCF). Look at: 1 ? What is the biggest number that goes into both 6 and 18? 6 ÷6 6 = = 18 ÷ 6 18 3 6 is the biggest number that goes into 18 and 6. ? 2 3 Find the greatest common factor and then simplify: 15 a 20 GCF is 15 ÷ 20 ÷ = 9 b 30 GCF is 9 ÷ 30 ÷ = 16 c 24 GCF is 16 ÷ 24 ÷ = 12 d 36 GCF is 12 ÷ 36 ÷ = Wally says he has simplified these fractions as far as he can.

If the denominators are different, change to equivalent fractions with the same denominators using the LCM. Then add or subtract the numerators of the new fractions. Multiplying and dividing fractions To multiply fractions, just remember: Multiply the numerators (top) and the denominators (bottom). To divide an amount by a fraction, just remember: flip the second fraction (reciprocal), then multiply. “of” means “ # .” Find 2 of 2 means calculate 2 # 2 Fractions of an amount 5 5 Two amounts as a fraction 2 out of 5 as a fraction is 2 . If the two amounts are in different units, change the larger amount into the smaller units. 5 So 200 g out of 2 kg becomes 200 g out of 2,000 g. Copyright © 3P Learning Grade 5 | FRACTIONS | 4.NF.6 22
