Vocabulary Words

Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Mixed Numbers with Like Denominators. Suitable for Grade 3, Grade 4, Grade 5.

Main Concepts

Subtract mixed numbers by using equivalent fractions with the same denominator (1 ¼ - 2/4 = 5/4 - 2/4 = (5 - 2)/4 = 3/4).

Add mixed numbers by using equivalent fractions with the same denominator (1 ¼ + 2/4 = 5/4 + 2/4 = (5 + 2)/4 = 7/4).
