Learning ObjectiveName ___________________________ Today, we will reduce fractions. Factors of 6 CFU What are we going to do today? 1, 2, 3, 6 Activate (or provide) Prior Knowledge A factoris a number that divides a given number evenly. The greatest common factor (GCF) of two numbers is the largest number that divides both numbers evenly. List the factors of the following numbers. A. The factors of 18 B. The factors of 12 1 , 2 , 3 , 6 , 9 , 18 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 12 C. What is the GCF of 12 and 18? The GCF of 12 and 18 is ________. 6 CFU Students, you already know how to find the GCF of two numbers by listing their factors. Today, we will reduce fractions by finding the GCF of the numerator and denominator.
Concept Development • The reduced form of a fraction iswhen the numerator and denominator have no common1 factor except 1. • • A fraction in reduced form is also referred2 to as in simplest form or lowest terms. • To reducea fraction means to change it into reduced form. • • To reduce a fraction, divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF. 1 same 2 called NOT a Reduced Fraction Reduced Fraction 1, 2 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 Flashcards Reduced Form 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18 1, 3 1, 2, 3 and 6 are common factors No common factor except 1 Example: Reduce using the greatest common factor (GCF): GCF = 6 CFU Use the list of factors to determine which fraction is in reduced form?

Relevance The reduced form of a fraction iswhen the numerator and denominator have no common factor except 1. To reducea fraction means to change it into reduced form. 1. Reducing fractions will make calculations easier. A pizza is cut into 12 equal pieces. John and his friend ate 6 slices. How much of the pizza did they eat? They ate half of the pizza. 2. Reducing fractions will help you do well on tests. CFU Does anyone else have another reason why it is relevant to reduce fractions? (pair-share) Why is it relevant to reduce fractions? You may give me my reason or one of your own. Which reason is more relevant to you? Why?
