Fractions of Numbers

Follow the slides

slide-2
SLIDE 2

1 2 of 8 = __

Follow the step by step guide which will show you how to solve this.

slide-3
SLIDE 3

1 2 of 8 =

Split the number (that we are trying to find a fraction of) into two equal groups because the denominator is two!

1 2

Denominator

Divide by this number

8 ÷ 2 = 4

This is the same as saying 8 ÷ 2 8 altogether divided by the denominator

slide-4
SLIDE 4

Count up how many are in one of the groups, this is because one is the numerator

1 2

Numerator

Times by this number

1 2 of 8 =

This is the same as saying 4 x 1 4 in a group times by the numerator

SLIDE 5

1 2 of 8 = 4

It would look like this in your book

slide-6
SLIDE 6

1 4 of 12 = __

Follow the step by step guide which will show you how to solve this.

slide-7
SLIDE 7

1 4 of 12 =

Split the number (that we are trying to find a fraction of) into four equal groups because the denominator is four!

1 4

Denominator

Divide by this number

12 ÷ 4 = 3

This is the same as saying 12 ÷ 4 12 altogether divided by the denominator

slide-8
SLIDE 8

Count up how many are in one of the groups, this is because one is the numerator

1 4

Numerator

Times by this number

1 4 of 12 =

This is the same as saying 3 x 1 3 in a group times by the numerator

3 4 of 16 = __

Children always forget to look at the numerator! Follow the step by step guide which will show you how to solve this.

slide-11
SLIDE 11

3 4 of 16 =

Split the number (that we are trying to find a fraction of) into four equal groups because the denominator is four!

3 4

Denominator

Divide by this number

16 ÷ 4 = 4

This is the same as saying 16 ÷ 4 16 altogether divided by the denominator

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Count up how many are in THREE of the groups, this is because THREE is the numerator

3 4

Numerator

Times by this number

3 4 of 16 =

This is the same as saying 4 x 3 4 in a group times by the numerator
