When asked to shade a fraction of a given whole (objectFirst, understand what you are being asked to do. To master these types of sums, you must understand. • Simplifying and Expanding Fractions • Equivalent Fractions Shade of the shape
HERE ARE THREE METHODS YOU CAN USE 1) Just follow what is asked. Follow the WORDS . E.g. Shade of the shape E.g. shade 3 out of every 5 you see. 2) Equivalent fractions: Change the denominator to the whole in the shape and work out. The numerator tells who many to shade. 3) Work it as a sum : of the given amount will tell you how many piece you shade. x the given amount = number of items to shade

HOW MANY FRACTIONAL PIECES IN A WHOLE • In sums like this think about what they are asking you for. • How many thirds are there is 6 wholes. Method 1: You are cutting the whole into thirds (3 pieces), count how many pieces or thirds you have in all. Method 2: The words “how many are there in” tell you to divide or cut continuously. You are divide the whole (6) by the fraction thirds ()
