Mixed Fractions (Also called "Mixed Numbers") | | A Mixed Fraction is a whole number and a proper fraction combined. such as 1 3/4. | 1 3/4 | | | (one and three-quarters) | | | Examples 2 3/8 | 7 1/4 | 1 14/15 | 21 4/5 | See how each example is made up of a whole number and a proper fraction together? That is why it is called a "mixed" fraction (or mixed number). Names We can give names to every part of a mixed fraction: Three Types of Fractions There are three types

Type I – Mathematical Investigation Lacsap’s Fractions The focus of this investigation is surrounding Lascap’s Fractions. They are a group of numbers set up in a certain pattern. A similar mathematical example to Lacsap’s Fractions is Pascal’s Triangle. Pascal’s Triangle represents the coefficients of the binomial expansion of quadratic equations. It is arranged in such a way that the number underneath the two numbers above it‚ is the sum. Ex. 1 1 1 1 2 1 1

What’s So Hard About Fractions? Fractions as we know them today‚ the symbols and the algorithms for performing operations‚ have developed over thousands of years‚ beginning with ancient Egyptians. Through research of the origins‚ the development of fractions to appearing symbolically as we know them today‚ and of the developments of how we operate with them today and then connecting that knowledge with the observations of contemporary math education experts and personal interviews and observation

Iva Rhiana C. Santiago 4218 “Man is like a fraction whose numerator is what he is and whose denominator is what he thinks. The greater the denominator‚ the lesser the fraction.” –Lev Tolstoy We should take note that in a fraction‚ as the denominator becomes larger‚ the value of the fraction becomes lesser. Man is also like a fraction as what Lev Tolstoy said in his quotation. Life is full of choices‚ full of situations. Where sometimes all our way to run away is by pretending. Pretending is one

Basic Concepts on Fraction Fraction – is defined as a part of a whole. In some other books‚ it is defined as a number written in the form ab ‚ where “a” and “b” are numbers and “b” is not equal to zero. Basic Parts of a Fraction * Numerator – the number above tells how many parts are taken. * Denominator – the number below tells how many equal parts the whole is divided. * Fraction bar – line that separates the two numbers. It also indicates division. There are several kinds
