Today in math we didnt really do that much . we learned how to convert improper fractions to mixed fractions and the other way around . So if you guys didnt get it ill repeat what we did today.

Converting improper fractions to mixed fractions

Steps:

Determine the number of times the denominator goes into the numerator.

Here is another example :

19/4 = 4

4 x 4 = 16

19 - 16 = 3

4 3/4

Converting mixed fractions to improper fractions

Here is an example :

6 5/9

6 x 9 = 54

54 + 5 = 59

59/9

my mistake ^^ that is suppose to be 52/9

Scribe Post for February 22, 2007

We didn't do that much in class today. We started our class with a fraction quiz. Which Mr. Hanley had drew a number line and some few fractions. Then we had to put the fractions on the number line in where it's supposed to be. Then he collected the quiz papers and he spent some time answering questions and making sure that we understood what we were doing. After that, we spent the rest of the class working on our purple fraction booklet. Our homework is to finished pages c-21 to c-29, if you didn't finish what you need to do in class, you need to do all those pages. Oh, and if you go past those pages, "your marks will be deducted" says Mr. Hanley. I think that is all I have to say. If there is something wrong or you want me to add something, feel free to comment. Thanks!

Well we didn't do much this afternoon except listen to Hanly preach about math. All we did was explain the definition of proper fraction, improper fraction, mixed fraction and equivalent fractions. Oh and you had to show an example for each one too on the big piece of paper Hanly gave everybody. Hanly also gave out some kind of purple booklet and said that page c-21 and c-22 are homework and probably due next math class. Well thats basicly all i have to say.... oh and don't forget tomorrow is activity day! so bring money!


Oh and the next scribe is ............Smillies!!!

Problem

You went shopping with your family and you wanted to buy a $97 sweater. You ask your mom for $50 and your dad for $50. You buy the sweater and get $3 change. You give $1 to your mom and $1 to your dad and keep $1 for yourself. Now you owe your mom $49 and your dad $49 that equals $98 in total plus your dollar making it $99. What happened to the other dollar?

Comment if you think you know the answer.
