Main Concepts
Reason that since there are b portions of 1/b in 1 then there must be a x b in a.
In order to add or subtract fractions with unlike denominators you must find equivalent fractions with the same denominator.
See that dividing a whole number by a unit fraction is determining how many of that unit fraction is in the whole number.
Use factor families to show that a / 1/b = c so c x 1/b = a.
Use visual fraction models to show and prove reasoning.
Recognize that division of a whole number as multiplying by a unit fraction.
Due to the reasoning that dividing a whole number can be represented as a fraction, divide a unit fraction by a whole number.
Use visual fraction models to show the quotient.
Dividing a unit fraction into more whole number parts means partitioning the denominator into smaller parts.
Finding the equivalent fractions with common denominators does not change the value of either fraction.
Discussion Questions
