FRACTIONS


In Maths this term we have been learning about FRACTIONS


I can find fractions of whole numbers like:

1/2 of 12 = 6                 1/3 of 9= 3                1/10 of 20= 2

2/3 of 12= 8                     4/5 of 10= 8              

I can recognise when a  fraction is greater than 1:

½ + ½ + ½ = 1 1/2

⅓ + ⅓ + ⅓ + ⅓ =1 1/3

7/4 = 1 3/4
