77 Topic 1: Meaning and characteristic of fractions and how to read fractions (1) Fractions are a way of representing division of a whole into equal parts. For example: This circle represents one whole. It is divided into 4 equal parts. parts. The shaded area is 1 part of the 4 quarter” It can be written as which reads “one- This is a rectangle. It is divided into 5 equal parts. The shaded area is 2 parts of the 5 parts. fifths” It can be written as which reads “two- There are 3 types of fractions 1. Proper fractions have a numerator which is less than the denominator such as 1 , 3 , 2 , 11 4 5 7 15 2. Improper fractions have a numerator which is larger than the denominator such as 7 , 12 35 3. Mixed fractions are a combination of an integer and a proper fraction such as 3 1 , 5 4 , 11 5 2 7 12
78 Exercise 1 a. Write a fraction representing the shaded section of each rectangle below. (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) b. Write each fraction out in words. Example: reads two-thirds (1) 5 (2) 4 (3) 7 (4) 1 (5) 6 68 9 7 7 c. Write each fraction in numbers. (1) Five-eights = __________________________________ (2) Two-thirds = __________________________________ (3) Seven-ninths = __________________________________ (4) Six-sevenths = __________________________________ (5) Three-fifths = __________________________________ (2) Fractions represent parts of a whole which is equally divided. For example: There are 6 eggs and they are equally divided into 3 parts. So, each part is of all the eggs. Each part of the eggs is one- third of all the eggs. It can be written as of all the eggs or of 6 eggs or one part equals 2 eggs. 1 There are 6 oranges and they are equally divided into 2 piles. Each pile represents of 2 all the oranges. 1 So, there are a total of 2 piles of oranges. It can be written as of 6 oranges 2 or each pile is equal to 3 oranges.

Example: Subtraction Addition 3 2 1 141 1 4444 1 41 1 1 4444 Method: 1 1 = 1 1 = 2 Method: 4 3 = 43 = 1 44 4 4 44 44 Exercise 3 Fill in the blanks with the correct answers. (1) 2 + 3 = (2) 4 + 5 = 77 55 (3) 4 3 = 72 = + (4) - 88 77 (5) 6 - 5 = (6) 8 2 = - 10 10 97
82 (7) 2 3 2 = (8) 1 2 2 = 999 4 4 (9) 2 4 - 3 = (10) 3 2 1 = 7 7 7 5 5 (11) 2 2 + 3 = (12) 4 2 2 = 7 7 7 5 5 5 Creating equivalent fractions 1) To raise fractions to higher terms, multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same number. Example: == == 2) To decrease fractions to lower terms, divide both the numerator and denominator by the same number. Example: == == Adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators Adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators by raising fractions to higher terms. To add or subtract fractions with unlike denominators, start with raising fractions to higher terms in order to create a like denominator. Then, add or subtract the numerators of the fractions. Raising fractions to higher terms means increasing both the numerator and denominator of a fraction without changing its value. For example: Example: Find the sum of 1 + 2 How to make the denominators of 1 and 2 53 53 Method: 1 + 2 = 13 + 2 5 equal? Analysis 5 3 53 35 The denominators are 5 and 3and 5 cannot be = 3 + 10 evenly divided by 3. So, multiply 3 by both 15 15 the numerator and denominator of 1 and = 3 10 5 15 multiply 5 by both the numerator and denominator of 2 . The products are 3 and = 13 3 15 15 10 . The fractions now have a common Answer 13 15 15 denominator.
83 Example: Find the difference of 5 - How to find a common denominator of 5 and 1 ? 7 1 73 3 Analysis Method: 5 - 1 = 53 - 1 7 The denominators are 7 and 3and 7 cannot be 7 3 73 37 evenly divided by 3. So, multiply 3 by both the numerator and denominator of 5 and = 15 - 7 7 21 21 multiply 7 by both the numerator and = 15 7 denominator of 1 . The products are 15 and 21 3 21 =8 7 . The fractions now have a common 21 21 Answer 8 denominator. 21 Exercise 7 (2) 2 + 2 Find the answers. 64 (1) 1 + 2 (4) 1 + 3 25 37 (3) 1 + 3 (6) 11 - 8 58 12 13 (5) 1 + 2 45 Commutative property of fraction addition Example: Prove if 2 + 1 equals 1 + 2 55 55 Method: 2 + 1 = 2 1 1 + 2 = 12 55 5 55 5 =3 = 3 55 Therefore 2 + 1 = 1 + 2 5 55 5
84 Example: Prove if 1 + 3 equals 3 + 1 27 72 Method: 1 + 3 = 1 7 + 3 2 3 + 1 = 3 2 + 1 7 2 7 27 72 7 2 72 27 = 7+6 = 6+7 14 14 14 14 = 76 = 67 14 14 = 13 = 13 14 14 Therefore 1 + 3 = 3 + 1 2 772 Analysis When 2 fractions are added, the sum is the same regardless of the orders of the addends. Therefore, it can be concluded that fraction addition has a commutative property. Exercise 5 (2) 12 + 19 = + 12 25 27 25 Correctly fill the fractions in the blanks (4) 13 + = 25 + 13 (1) 5 + 7 = 7 + 25 29 25 9 13 13 (6) 21 + = 19 + 21 (3) 2 + 8 = 8 + 91 87 91 5 27 27 (5) + 5 = 5 + 11 12 12 23 Associative property of fraction addition Example: Prove if 1 2 + 3 equals 1 + 2 3 5 7 7 5 7 7 Method: 1 2 + 3 = 1 7 2 5 + 3 1 + 2 3 = 1 + 5 5 7 7 57 75 7 5 7 7 5 7 = 7 10 + 3 = 1 7 + 55 35 35 7 57 75 = 17 + 3 = 7 + 25 35 7 35 35 = 17 + 35 = 32 35 75 35 = 17 + 15 = 32 35 35 35 1 2 + 3 equals 1 + 2 3 5 7 7 5 7 7
85 Analysis Which method is more convenient? Solving 1 + 2 3 is easier. As 5 7 7 numerators of like fractions can be added up immediately, we should calculate 2 3 5 before adding the sum with 1 which has a different denominator. 77 7 5 The associative property of addition can be applied to fraction addition to make the operation simpler. Conclusion: When adding up 3 fractions, changing the fraction grouping does not change the answers. This confirms that fraction addition has an associative property.

(5) There are 75 mango trees in the orchard. 1 of them are Kaew mangoes. How many 3 Kaew mango trees are there in the orchard? Topic 6: Dividing fractions and problem exercises Dividing integers by fractions 11 11 2 1 = 2 2 ÷ 1 2 22 22 2 1 2 1 There are 2 rai of land The land is equally divided into plots = 2 2 ÷ 1 of 1 rai. 1 2 = 2 2 So, the land is divided into 4 parts. 1 Therefore 2 1 = 2 2 21 =4
91 Dividing fractions by integers 1 1 2 = 1 1 ÷ 2 1 3 3 3 2 2 11 66 = 1 1 ÷ 1 There is a piece of land of 1 rai. 3 2 3 = 11 It is equally divided into 2 parts 32 So, each part equals 1 rai. Therefore 1 2 = 1 1 6 3 32 =1 6 Dividing fractions by fractions 4 5 4 2 = 4 5 ÷ 2 5 5 5 5 2 5 2 = 4 5 ÷ 1 5 2 22 = 45 55 52 There is a land of 4 rai. Therefore 4 2 = 4 5 5 55 52 =2 It is equally divided into parts of 2 rais 5 each. So, the plot of land is divided into 2 parts. “Dividing fractions means splitting fractions into equal, smaller amounts”. There are 3 types of fraction division which are dividing integers by fractions, dividing fractions by integers and dividing fractions by fractions. The division principles are as follows: Dividing integers by fractions To divide an integer by a fraction, you must multiply the integer by the reciprocal of the fraction. Example: 6 2 = 3 Method: 6 2 = 6 3 312 = 63 2 = 18 2 =9 Answer: 9
92 Explanation (1) The reciprocal of 2 is 3 . 32 (2) Multiply 3 by 6. Start with multiplying the nominators, that is, 2 multiplying 3 by 6. The product is 18. As 6 is an integer, its denominator is 1. The product of denominator multiplication is 2 because 2 1 equals 2. (3) 18 is an improper fraction and can be simplified by dividing 18 by 2 2. The result is 9. Dividing fractions by integers To divide a fraction by an integer, you must multiply the fraction by the reciprocal of the integer. Example: 8 4 = 9 Method: 8 4 = 8 4 9 91 = 81 94 = 81 94 =8 36 = 84 36 4 =2 9 Answer: 2 9 Explanation (1) Convert 4 which is an integer into a fraction by putting the integer as the numerator and 1 as the denominator. (2) The reciprocal of 4 is 1 . Multiply the fraction by 8 . The product is 8 . 14 9 36 (3) Simplify 8 by dividing the fraction by 4 which is the highest 36 common divisor of the numerator and the denominator. The result is 2 . 9
93 Dividing fractions by fractions To divide a fraction by a fraction, you must multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. Example: 2 3 = 5 10 Method: 2 3 = 2 10 5 10 5 3 = 2 10 53 = 20 15 = 20 5 15 5 =4 3 = 11 3 Answer: 11 3 Explanation (1) The reciprocal of 3 is 10 . Multiply the fraction by 2 . The product is 10 3 5 20 . 15 (2) Reduce 20 to the simplest form by dividing the fraction by 5 which is the 15 highest common divisor of the numerator and the denominator. The result is 4 . 3 (3) Change 4 into a mixed fraction by dividing 4 by 3. The result is 11 . 33 Example: 3 4 3 3 = 54 Method: 3 4 3 3 = 19 15 5 45 4 = 19 4 5 15 = 19 4 5 15 = 76 75 = 11 75 Answer: 1 1 75
94 Explanation(1) Converted into improper fractions, 3 4 equals 5 19 and 3 3 equals 15 . 54 4 (2) The reciprocal of 15 is 4 . Multiply the reciprocal by 19 . The 4 15 5 product is 76 . 75 (3) 76 can be converted into a mixed fraction as 1 1 . 75 75 Remark: To divide mixed fractions by fractions or by mixed fractions, you can apply the same method used in dividing fractions by fractions. Start with the conversion of mixed fractions into improper fractions. Then, divide them in the same way you generally divide fractions. Fraction division problem exercises Fraction division problem exercises have the same characteristics as fraction subtraction problem exercises because division is a shorter and faster way for repeated subtraction. Example: A father has an amount of land of 22 1 rai. If he equally divides and gives the 2 land to his 3 children, how much of the land will each child receive? Symbolic expression: 22 1 3= 2 Method: A father has a land of 22 1 rai. 2 The land is equally divided and given to his 3 children. Each child will get 22 1 3 = 45 3 rai 2 21 = 451 rai 23 = 45 3 rai 6 3 = 15 rai 2 = 7 1 rai 2 Answer: 7 1 rai 2 Exercise 13 Part 1: Show the method to solve the problem exercises and find the answers. 1. 4 1 = 7. 2 5 = . 4 59 2. 5 5 = 8. 4 1 = 7 5 10 3. 8 8 = 9. 2 1 5 = 9 36
95 4. 14 7 = 10. 3 2 1 = 15 10 15 5. 1 1 = 11. 5 5 7 1 = 44 84 6. 1 1 = 12. 21 3 15 3 = 22 57 Part 2: Show the method to solve the problem exercises. 1. Multiplication of two numbers yields 54 . If one number is 9 , what is 55 15 the other number? 2. There are 36 3 bags of the rice left. The remaining rice can feed 4 immigrants in a camp for 6 days. How much rice is used each day? 3. 30 volunteers can dig 5 of a well in 5 days. How deep can they dig in 1 6 day? 4. There is oil which fills 63 of a tank. If we divide the oil and put it in 112 cans, how many cans does the oil fill if each can is 3 of the tank? 16 Topic 7: Adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing mixed fractions and problem exercises In some cases, a mathematical problem may require mixed operations which are addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, or has a parenthesis or “of”. The order of operations is as follows: (1) Start with calculating numbers in the parenthesis. (2) Change “of” to“”sign and perform the multiplication first. (3) Multiplication and division have the same order. (4) Addition and subtraction have the same order. Example 1: 3 5 ÷ 7 1 = 4 6 2 Method: 3 5 ÷ 7 1 = 3 3 5 2 ÷ 15 4 6 2 43 62 2 = 9 10 ÷ 15 12 12 2 = 19 15 12 2 = 19 2 12 15 = 38 180 = 38 2 180 2 = 19 90 Answer: 19 90
96 (1) Begin with the addition of fractions in the parenthesis: 3 5 yields 19 . 12 4 6 (2) After obtaining a common fraction by calculating all the fractions in the parenthesis, divide it by 7 1 after having changed it into an improper fraction. 2 Example2: 25 4 + 5 1 2 3 = 28 5 2 4 Method: 25 4 + 11 11 = 100 11 4 28 5 2 4 140 2 11 = 5 11 4 7 2 11 = 5 44 7 22 = 52 7 = 25 7 Answer: 2 5 7 Explanation (1) In the first parenthesis, the multiplication of the numerators or 25 4 yields 100 and the multiplication of the denominators or 28 5 yields 140. Then, reduce the fraction by dividing 20 which is the highest common divisor of 100 and 140 into both the numerator and denominator. The result is 5 . 7 (2) As for the second parenthesis, change the fractions into improper fractions. The results are 11 and 11 . Then, inverse the divisor from 24 11 to 4 and multiply it by 11 . The result is 44 . 4 11 2 22 44 ivided by 22 is 2. (3) Add 5 and 2. The answer is 2 5 . 77
97 Example3: A gardener harvests 122 1 kilograms of mangoes from the first mango tree and 134 1 24 kilograms from the second mango tree. If the harvested mangoes are equally divided into 3 piles, how much does each pile weigh in kilograms? Symbolic expression: (122 1 134 1 ) ÷ 3 = 24 Method: A gardener harvests from the first mango tree 122 1 kilograms of mangoes 2 He harvests from the second mango tree 134 1 kilograms of mangoes 2 He harvests from both mango trees = 122 1 134 1 kilograms of mangoes 24 = 245 537 kilograms of mangoes 24 = 245 2 537 kilograms of mangoes 22 4 = 490 537 kilograms of mangoes 44 = 1027 kilograms of mangoes 4 The mangoes are divided into 3 equal piles. Each pile weighs = 1027 3 kilograms 41 = 1027 3 kilograms 41 = 1027 kilograms 12 = 85 7 kilograms 12 Answer: 85 7 kilograms 12 Exercise 14 Part 1: Show the method to solve the following problem exercises: 1. 1 5 2 1 = 8 3 4 2. 3 2 1 = 4 5 5 3. 7 4 2 = 7 14 4. 2 3 10 2 6 = 5 7
98 5. 5 1 2 3 7 1 = 2 4 3 6. 1 7 2 4 1 = 8 8 5 14 7. 35 4 2 10 = 36 5 3 12 8. 15 5 12 1 25 of 9 = 6 3 54 100 Part 2: Write the following problems in the form of a symbolic expression and find the answers: 1.

100 Topic 1: Meaning of decimal and how to read and write decimals 1.1 One decimal digit Decimals represent fractions with denominators of 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, etc. The place value is indicated by the decimal point (.). For example: The above rectangle is equally divided into 10 parts. The shaded section comprises 7 parts and can be expressed in fraction as 7 and in decimal form as 0.7 10 1.2 When reading decimals, begin with the integer to the left of the decimal point. Then, read the decimal point as “and” followed by the digits to the right of the decimal point. For example: 0.2 reads zero point two 0.53 reads zero point five three 3.48 reads three point four eight 72.316 reads seventy-two point three one six 1.3 When writing decimals, the number to the left of the decimal point is the integer. The first number to the right of the decimal point is called “the first decimal place” and it shows the number of tenths. For example: The shaded section accounts for 4 parts out of 10 equal parts or 4 . It can be expressed 10 in decimal form as 0.4 which reads “zero point four”. Likewise, if a rectangle is divided into 100 equal parts and 79 parts out of 100 parts are shaded, the shaded parts can be expressed in fraction as 79 and in decimal as 0.79 which reads “zero point seven nine”. 100
