Integers: Comparing and Ordering Today’s Objective I will learn how to compare and order rational numbers. Evaluation Questions • What are rational numbers? • How do we compare and order rational numbers? Rational Numbers Rational Numbers Integers Whole Numbers (Positive Integers) Fractions/Decimals Negative Integers Whole Numbers • Positive numbers that are not fractions or decimals. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Integers • The set of whole numbers and their opposites. -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 Positive Integers • Integers greater than zero. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Negative Integers • Integers less than zero. -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 Comparing Integers • The further a number is to the right on the number line, the greater it’s value. < -1 Ex: -3 ___ -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 . . 0 1 2 3 4 5 -1 is on the right of -3, so it is the greatest. Comparing Integers • The farther a number is to the right on the number line, the greater it’s value. > -5 Ex: 2 ___ -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 . 0 1 2 . 3 4 5 2 is on the right of -5, so it is the greatest. Comparing Integers • The farther a number is to the right on the number line, the greater it’s value. > -2 Ex: 0 ___ -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 . 0 . 1 2 3 4 5 0 is on the right of -2, so it is the greatest. Ordering Integers When ordering integers from least to greatest follow the order on the number line from left to right. Ex: 4, -5, 0, 2 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 . 0 . 1 2 . 3 Least to greatest: -5, 0, 2, 4 4 . 5 Ordering Integers When ordering integers from greatest to least follow the order on the number line from right to left. Ex: -4, 3, 0, -1 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 . 0 .. 1 2 3 . Greatest to least: 3, 0, -1, -4 4 5 Using Models • If you are comparing tenths to hundredths, you can use a tenths grid and a hundredths grid. Here, you can see that 0.4 is greater than 0.36. McDonald’s Menu….

Writing Equivalent Fractions • One way to find a common denominator is to multiply the two original denominators. 5 6 > 3 4 6 x 4 = 24 20 > 18 x4 20 24 18 24 x6 •Another way to compare fractions is to find the LCM of both denominators. •Use the LCM as the new denominator in the equivalent fractions. 9, 18, 27, 36, 45 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 5 9 7 < 12 20 < 21 x4 20 36 21 36 x3 Ordering Fractions • Find the LCM of the denominators. • Use the LCM to write equivalent fractions. • Put the fractions in order using the numerators. Example - Order from Least to Greatest: 3 8 x5 15 40 2 5 x8 1 4 16 10 40 40 x 10 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40 1/4 , 3/8 , 2/5 HOMEWORK TIME!!!!
