Human beings have always realized that certain things are longer than other things. For example, this line segment looks longer than this line segment. But that's not so satisfying just to make that comparison. You want to be able to measure it. You want to be able to quantify how much longer the second one is than the first one. And how do we go about doing that? Well, we define a unit length. So if we make this our unit length, we say this is one unit, then we could say how many of those the lengths are each of these lines? So this first line looks like it is-- we could do one of those units and then we could do it again, so it looks like this is two units. While this third one looks like we can get-- let's see that's 1, 2, 3 of the units. So this is three of the units. And right here, I'm just saying units. Sometimes we've made conventions to define a centimeter, where the unit might look something like this. And it's going to look different depending on your screen. Or we might have an inch that looks something like this. Or we might have a foot that I won't be able to fit on this screen based on how big I've just drawn the inch or a meter. So there's different units that you could use to measure in terms of. But now let's think about more dimensions. This is literally a one-dimensional case. This is 1D. Why is it one dimension? Well, I can only measure length. But now let's go to a 2D case. Let's go to two dimensions where objects could have a length and a width or a width and a height. So let's imagine two figures here that look like this. So let's say this is one of them. This is one of them. And notice, it has a width and it has a height. Or you could view it as a width and the length, depending on how you want to view it. So let's say this is one figure right over here. And let's say this is the other one. So this is the other one right over here. Try to draw them reasonably well. Now, once again, now we're in two dimensions. And we want to say, well, how much in two dimensions space is this taking up? Or how much area are each of these two taking up? Well, once again, we could just make a comparison. This second, if you viewed them as carpets or rectangles, the second rectangle is taking up more of my screen than this first one, but I want to be able to measure it. So how would we measure it? Well, once again, we would define a unit square. Instead of just a unit length, we now have two dimensions. We have to define a unit square. And so we might make our unit square. And the unit square we will define as being a square, where its width and its height are both equal to the unit length. So this is its width is one unit and its height is one unit. And so we will often call this 1 square unit. Oftentimes, you'll say this is 1 unit. And you put this 2 up here, this literally means 1 unit squared. And instead of writing unit, this could've been a centimeter. So this would be 1 square centimeter. But now we can use this to measure these areas. And just as we said how many of this unit length could fit on these lines, we could say, how many of these unit squares can fit in here? And so here, we might take one of our unit squares and say, OK, it fills up that much space. Well, we need more to cover all of it. Well, there, we'll put another unit square there. We'll put another unit square right over there. We'll put another unit square right over there. Wow, 4 units squares exactly cover this. So we would say that this has an area of 4 square units or 4 units squared. Now what about this one right over here? Well, here, let's seem I could fit 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. So here I could fit 9 units, 9 units squared. Let's keep going. We live in a three-dimensional world. Why restrict ourselves to only one or two? So let's go to the 3D case. And once again, when people say 3D, they're talking about 3 dimensions. They're talking about the different directions that you can measure things in. Here there's only length. Here there is length and width or width and height. And here, there'll be width and height and depth. So once again, if you have, let's say, an object, and now we're in three dimensions, we're in the world we live in that looks like this, and then you have another object that looks like this, it looks like this second object takes up more space, more physical space than this first object does. It looks like it has a larger volume. But how do we actually measure that? And remember, volume is just how much space something takes up in three dimensions. Area is how much space something takes up in two dimensions. Length is how much space something takes up in one dimension. But when we think about space, we're normally thinking about three dimensions. So how much space would you take up in the world that we live in? So just like we did before, we can define, instead of a unit length or unit area, we can define a unit volume or unit cube. So let's do that. Let's define our unit cube. And here, it's a cube so its length, width, and height are going to be the same value. So my best attempt at drawing a cube. And they're all going to be one unit. So it's going to be one unit high, one unit deep, and one unit wide. And so to measure volume, we could say, well, how many of these unit cubes can fit into these different shapes? Well, this one right over here, and you won't be able to actually see all of them. I could essentially break it down into-- so let me see how well I can do this so that we can count them all. It's a little bit harder to see them all because there's some cubes that are behind us. But if you think of it as two layers, so one layer would look like this. One layer is going to look like this. So imagine two things like this stacked on top of each other. So this one's going to have 1, 2, 3, 4 cubes. Now, this is going to have two of these stacked on top of each other. So here you have 8 unit cubes. Or you could have 8 units cubed volume. What about here? If we try to fit it all in-- let me see how well I could draw this. It's going to look something like this. And obviously, this is kind of a rough drawing. And so if we were to try to take this apart, you would essentially have a stack of three sections that would each look something like this. My best attempt at drawing it. Three sections that would look something like what I'm about to draw. So it would look like this. So if you took three of these and stacked them on top of each other, you'd get this right over here. And each of these have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 cubes in it. 9 times 3, you're going to have 27 cubic units in this one right over here. So hopefully that helps us think a little bit about how we measure things especially how we measure things in different number of dimensions, especially in three dimensions when we call it volume.

Q1: How do you explain fraction to a child?
Ans: Fraction represents part of a whole and usually refers to quantities which are less than 1. It is written in the form a/b where 'a' is called the numerator and 'b' is called the denominator. You can explain fraction to a child by using real life objects like cake, pizza or chocolates and then ask him to divide it into equal parts to share among friends.
Q2: Who introduced fractions?
Ans: The word fraction actually comes from the Latin "fractio" which means to break. From as early as 1800 BC, the Egyptians were writing fractions. The Egyptians wrote all their fractions as unit fractions where they put a mouth picture (which meant part) above a number to make it into a unit fraction.The disadvantage of this system was that it is very difficult to do any calculations.The Babylonians were the first people to come up with a more sensible way of representing fractions in around 1800 BC.
Q3: How do you add fractions?
Ans: To add fractions, if denominators are the same, add the numerators keeping the denominator the same. To add fractions with different denominators we first need to convert both fractions into fractions with common denominator and then add them just as we add like fractions.
Q4: How do u subtract fractions?
Ans: To subtract fractions, if denominators are the same, subtract the numerators keeping the denominator the same. To subtract fractions with different denominators we first need to convert both fractions into fractions with common denominator and then subtract them just as we subtract like fractions.
Q5: In which grade adding and subtracting fractions is taught?
Ans: We teach adding and subtracting fractions in grade 4 and 5. In Grade 4 we teach addition and subtraction of like fractions and in Grade 5 addition and subtraction of unlike fractions is taught.
Q6: How do you add fractions with different denominators?
Ans: To add fractions with different denominators we first need to convert both fractions into fractions with common denominator. Common denominator will be a common multiple of both the denominators. Find the least common multiple and then multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by a number that makes the denominator the least common multiple. Once both fractions have the same denominators, we can simply add the numerators keeping the denominator the same.
Q7: What do we call those fractions which are greater than 1?
Ans: Those fractions which are greater than 1 are called improper fractions or mixed numbers.

Games are played for fun, it is capable of releasing stress from an individual. But, games, on the other hand, can also serve a different purpose. It can be used for academics too. There are various math games that complement mathematics and illustrates its concepts in a very simple fashion that can be understood by the children of all grades with ease.

The era has changed, we have moved to a very advanced and sophisticated kind of world, and henceforth, the pattern of teaching should be changed too, especially in the lower grades. Many times, traditional learning methods (i.e. books) find themselves incapable of binding the reader`s attention, and as a consequence of which, the chapters seem boring to the children. Sometimes, due to this constant phenomenon, the reader judges the whole subject to be not interesting and ultimately finds himself/herself in a position where he/she is no longer interested in that subject ( let's say math), and just studies to mug up the concepts for good scores, and knows nothing about the fundamentals. If this happens, then further, it might lead to worse situations. Hence, children should get their fundamentals cleared in the lower grades itself.

The solution to this problem is the involvement of math games that can prove to be very productive learning activities.

Benefits of learning through math games over traditional learning methods: There are innumerable benefits of learning through math games. Children enjoy playing games and if education becomes a part of those interactive games, all kids would love to be a part of it. One big advantage of learning through math games is that children need not be pressurized to study as they themselves would freely choose to participate in these math games. These math games provide opportunities for building self-concepts about different topics in maths such as number sequences, fractions, decimals, operations, basic algebra, etc, and lead them towards developing a positive problem-solving attitude, thereby making them math solvers. Playing math games encourages strategic mathematical thinking as children find different strategies for solving problems and deepen their understanding of numbers. These games make the children love the subject and its concepts, and give them a fair bit of idea how those concepts are used in the real-world. Learning through math games keep the children stress-free, and they learn from their mistakes and errors, rather than fearing them.

Another very important thing is that when children learn by traditional methods, there are high chances of them forgetting concepts, but if they solve those problems as levels in games, then that would last much longer as they have solved the problem by themselves, and that too in a game, so the chances of him forgetting those concepts become less.

Children often learn from one another as they interact more with each other. Learning concepts through math games not only boost their academic performance but also enhances their overall personality. Concepts of the number system, operations, fractions, place value system, time, etc can be beautifully explained with the help of math games.

It is generally seen that most children of grade 3 find FRACTIONS difficult to understand. The reason is that FRACTIONS is a completely new topic for them, so it takes some time for them to grab things. But learning with the help of FRACTION GAMES will give a better understanding of the fraction concepts.

Let us take an example:

The image shown below interrogates the user, whether he wants to eat the 1/4th part of the 1/8th part.

It can be clearly seen that the first pizza is divided into eight small parts, and the second pizza is divided into four small parts.

Now, suppose each part has to be distributed among children, then a pizza lover will definitely choose the part from the second pizza as it is bigger.

This illustrates the fact that when the numerators are same, then two fractions can be compared by seeing their denominators. The one with a larger denominator will be the smaller fraction. The reason is that it is divided into more no of parts, so each part will be smaller as compared to the one which is divided into less no of parts.

Learning through these interactive means would mark a strong impression of that concept on the children` memory.

In this way, FRACTIONS, a complicated topic can be easily learned through math games.

SplashLearn has been a great platform for children who want to learn mathematical concepts in an effective way. SplashLearn believes that learning through math games make the concepts crystal clear along with its real-world applications. SplashLearn has various learning tools along with a structured gamified content for K-5 that is aligned with CCS that aims for building a deeper understanding of the subject and making the children love mathematics.

OVERVIEW OF FRACTION TOPICS

Children should develop an understanding of fractions as numbers:
What is a fraction?
A fraction is a quantity that represents a part of a whole. In other words, it is a quantity that is formed by a part when a whole is partitioned into b equal parts. It can either be the form , where one whole quantity is partitioned equally into b parts or be of the form a/b, where there are "an" equal parts of size " " each.

Consider the first circle to be a whole. Since the whole portion is shaded, so it can be represented as 1.

Now, if it is divided into two equal parts, the shaded portion represents half of the whole portion, that is . In other words, only one out of two part is shaded and hence it is represented as .

Now in the third circle, only one out of four parts are shaded and hence, it is represented as .

In the last circle, three out of four parts are shaded, and hence it is represented as 3 out of 4 or .

The "total number of parts that the figure is divided into" is determined by the denominator and "the total number of parts that are shaded" is determined by the numerator.

Two fractions are said to be like fractions if they have the same denominators. For instance, and are like fractions. Now, and are unlike fractions as they have different denominators.

SplashLearn provides a set of interactive exercises on identifying fractions. Children are recommended to solve all these worksheets which are carefully structured.

Some more interactive worksheets have been prepared for modeling fractions to familiarize children with the concept. You may practice model fractions

Equivalent fractions:

Fractions which appear different but have the exact same value are known as equivalent fractions.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator with the same number does not change the value of the fraction but creates an equivalent fraction.

For instance,

Similarly, and , on reducing becomes .

=

Hence, these are equivalent fractions.

Consider an example of equivalent fractions:

There are several worksheets available on SplashLearn on equivalent fractions.

One such example is:

=

Find the missing number.

The two fractions are given to be equivalent. That is, the numerator and the denominator of are multiplied by a number to get . Which number do we need to multiply 2 with to get 6? It is 3. So, both the numerator and denominator of is multiplied by 3 to get the new fraction.

Answer: 21

Fractions with like denominators:

While comparing fractions with like denominators, children need to consider the numerators and compare them. In such a case, the greater the numerator, the greater the value of the fraction and vice-versa.

For example:

and : which is greater?

Since the denominators are same, we will compare the numerators. 7 > 3, so > .

Fractions with same numerators:

When the numerators of two fractions are same, then children need to compare their denominators and accordingly decide. In such a case, the greater the denominator, the lesser the value of the fraction and vice-versa.

Identify the fraction which is smaller in value: & ?

Since the numerators are same, we will compare the denominators. 8 > 5, the greater the denominator, the lesser is the value. So, is smaller than .

Comparing unlike fractions: Till grade 3, children learned about like fractions, identifying them, comparing them with either same numerators or same denominators. In grade 4, children will learn about comparing unlike fractions.

The first step in comparing two unlike fractions is to rewrite the fractions with a common denominator. Once the denominators are the same, they can be compared by simply comparing the numerators.

Consider the fractions and .

Rewrite such that the denominator is 10. For that multiply the numerator and the denominator of by 2.

Now the two fractions have the same denominator, compare the numerators.

6 < 7

Thus, .

Proper and improper fractions:

Fractions with their numerators less than the denominators are called proper fractions. The ones which have their numerators greater than their denominators are called improper fractions.

For instance, is a proper fraction, whereas is an improper fraction.

Improper fractions can be written as mixed numbers. Mixed numbers contain a natural number along with a fraction. For instance, can be written as 2.

To convert an improper fraction into a mixed number, first, we need to divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient is written as a whole number, and the remainder divided by the denominator (divisor) is written as the fraction.

Similarly, to convert a mixed number into a fraction, we need to multiply the denominator of the fraction with the natural number and then add the numerator, while the denominator remains the same as that of the denominator of the fraction.

For example, 8 ¾ can be written as . So 8¾ can be written as .

Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Like Denominators:

Two like fractions are added by simply adding the numerators.

Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Unlike Denominators:

Like comparing unlike fractions, for adding unlike fractions, the step is to write them with a common denominator. Then, add them by adding the numerators.

For example, to add and , multiply the numerator and denominator of by 2 and that of by 5.

Now, add.

The procedures for subtraction are similar.

Multiplying fractions with whole numbers:

Multiplication is introduced as an extended addition using fraction strips. Initially, unit fractions are added with the help of visual models. Eventually, children advance to non-unit fractions without any models.

To multiply a fraction by a whole number, children are first expected to rewrite the whole number as a fraction and then multiply it by the fraction. That is, numerator multiplied with the numerator, and the denominator multiplied with the denominator.

Let us take an example:

= = .

Practice problems by playing games on Multiply unit fractions by a whole number and multiply fraction by whole number

Further, children learn to multiply more complex fractions.

Multiplying Fractions:

The multiplication of two fractions can be modeled by fractional strips as shown:

Algebraically they do it as below:

You can play games on multiply fractions

Operations on Mixed Numbers:

Adding mixed fractions or mixed numbers can be done in two ways.

1. Add the integral parts and fractional parts separately

2. Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions and add them

Subtraction follows similar rules.

In grade 5, the children are introduced to multiplying mixed fractions. The first step is converting mixed numbers to improper fractions and then multiplying improper fractions.

Tenths and hundredths:

Tenths are special fractions with denominator 10 and hundredths are the ones with 100. Since 100 is obtained by multiplying 10 by 10, an equivalence between tenths and hundredths can be defined by rewriting the fractions.

If you want to rewrite with a denominator of 100, then how will you convert it?

You can solve this visually. Consider a square divided into 10 parts of which 7 parts are shaded. Now, what we have is another square divided into 100 parts, so we need to find out what fraction of it should be shaded so that its fraction turns out to be .

Out of 100 parts, if 70 parts get shaded, then that will be , which is nothing but .

So, the answer is 70.

Consider adding fractions and .

Try to express with a denominator 100, so that it becomes easy for you to add. So multiplying and dividing by 10, we get .

So, now adding , we get 53 hundredths or .

Convert fraction to decimal

= 0.53

Subtraction follows the similar procedure.

Dividing Fractions:

Dividing a whole number by a unit fraction:

This concept can be understood by a simple example:

2 = ?

This can be evaluated as =

This can also be solved visually.

If 2 is divided into pieces that are each of a whole, then how many pieces will be required?

5 piece will cover up to , and the other 5 pieces will cover up to 2, so a total of 10 pieces are required to cover a list of 2 units.

Multiplying and dividing fractions worksheets are available in SplashLearn.

Do you dread teaching adding fractions with unlike denominators? Does the thought of working on mixed numbers make you frown? Well, it doesn't have to be hard and it doesn't have to be boring. In fact, with a little practice, your children can be without pencil and paper. Normally, I would say that games are a great way to practice and review skills. But this adding fractions game is a little different.

It is designed to allow children to build some background knowledge about adding fractions and mixed numbers. By using their knowledge of fractions and pattern blocks, children will add fractions with unlike denominators (like 1 1/2 + 2/3) as they race to be the first to six.

Adding Fractions Game Prep - Work

This game has very little prep-work required.

MY LATEST VIDEOS

First, print one spinner per group.

Next, print one game board per student (there are two on a page).

Now, print one record sheet per student. If you would like to reuse your record sheets, you can laminate them or place them in a sheet protector.

Finally, gather up a spinner (fidget spinner, paper clip, etc), pattern blocks, and a dry erase marker or pencil.

Then you're ready to play and learn about fractions!

How to Play this Adding Fractions Game:

The premise is simple.

The students will take turns spinning. Whatever they spin is the number of pattern blocks they add to their game board.

The first player to fill up their mat (get six wholes) wins the game.

The catch is that while doing this, they must show what they are adding on their record sheet.

Adding Fractions with Unlike Denominators:

Let's say a student has already filled up 1 1/3 of their mat.

They then role a triangle....and we know that a triangle is 1/6 of a hexagon.

So, on their record sheet, they would write

1 1/3 + 1/6

Then they figure out how much of their mat is filled. Well, looking at this example we can see that 1 1/2 of the hexagons are filled up.

The children keep spinning and adding up their answers until a player reaches six wholes.

Where's the Math?

There is so much math happening in this game, but the most obvious is adding fractions.

Adding Fractions:

When we teach little ones to add, they are provided manipulative upon manipulative. They count up blocks, teddy bears, pictures on task cards, and so much more.

As children become older, we often forget that they still need manipulatives to be successful and develop math sense.

Pattern blocks are a wonderful way for children to visualize fractions, and they are also great to teach adding fractions.

In this game, children start off simple. They may simply be adding two triangles (1/6 + 1/6= 2/6).

But as the game progresses, they will be adding mixed numbers with uncommon denominators...and surprisingly it won't be hard.

Why? Because the work has already been done while they work with the pattern blocks.

Fraction Sense:

Pattern blocks are also perfect for helping children learn about using numerators and denominators.

Assuming that the hexagon is our whole, children will be able to figure out what parts each pattern block makes up.

For example, you need two trapezoids to fill up a hexagon, so one trapezoid is 1 out of the two needed to make a whole....1/2.

Three rhombuses must be used to make a hexagon. Therefore the denominator will be three, and the numerator based on how many rhombi. One rhombus equals 1/3 while two rhombuses equal 2/3.

Equivalent fractions:

I love using pattern blocks for equivalent fractions. Once again it the perfect visual!

Let's say I have two-thirds of a rhombus filled up, and I roll 1/2. Well, it is easy to see that that trapezoid is not going to fit on that hexagon. So some exchanging is needed.

We could use three triangles to make a trapezoid, showing us that 1/2 is equal to 3/6.

Or we could use one rhombus (because 1/3 and 2/6 are equivalent) and one triangle.

Once we do this we can see that 2/3 + 1/2 = 1 1/6.

I hope your children enjoy racing to six with this hands on adding fractions game, and build some adding fraction knowledge along the way.

The 32 task cards are "clock fraction friendly," providing opportunities to add fractions with (unlike) denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, 12. A student work mat is included for extra support in solving problems; this mat can be laminated or slipped into a page protector and used with dry erase markers.

Three options are included for record sheets. One provides space only for the answer, using 2 pages. The second option, 4 pages, provides space for student work, asking them to find the common denominators and add, showing their work. A third option is a single page for playing "Scoot!" (Spread cards around room and have students move to the next problem when you say "Scoot!" Students each answer problems on their own record sheets.) An answer key is included. Learn more about Clock Fraction Addition here.

Note: The fraction addition equations in this activity are the same as the equations in
Task Cards or Scoot: Egg Carton Fractions Addition. My class has used both activities to explore different models, using the same equations.

This activity is best used for practice, review, or assessment and works well in a Workbox, Math Station, or as a part of Guided Math. It may also be used in a game of "Scoot!" Please see the Preview for a sample of this product.

With Pen and Paper

And here is how to do it with a pen and paper (press the play button):

Another Example:

Step 1. Multiply the top numbers:

Step 2. Multiply the bottom numbers:

Step 3. Simplify the fraction:

(This time we simplified by dividing both top and bottom by 3)

The Rhyme

♫ "Multiplying fractions: no big problem,
Top times top over bottom times bottom.
"And don't forget to simplify,
Before it's time to say goodbye" ♫

Fractions and Whole Numbers

What about multiplying fractions and whole numbers?
Make the whole number a fraction, by putting it over 1.
Then continue as before.

Example:

Now just go ahead as normal.

Multiply tops and bottoms:

The fraction is already as simple as it can be.

Or you can just think of the whole number as being a "top" number:

There are so many fun ways to explore fractions with young learners. And we all know that kids make a deeper connection to learning by doing hands-on activities. So it's important to have a wide array of activities on hand to help kids learn this tricky concept. We've pulled together a list of favorite fraction games and activities to try in the classroom or at home.

1. Build fractions with play dough

Using a plastic cup or cookie cutter, have students cut out circles from different-colored dough. Then, using a plastic knife, have each student cut their circles into different fractions (halves, quarters, thirds, etc.) Finally, use fraction pieces to have students find equivalent fractions and create greater-than and less-than math sentences.

Decimal definition:

Decimal is a point or a dot used to separate a whole number part from the fractional part of a number. Decimal is often read as "point". To understand the decimal definition, it becomes imperative to learn about a whole and a fractional part. Introduce the child to the concepts of decimals using the below decimal games. These educational games are funbrain games that make the child learn math concepts with the help of everyday math.

Pizza Fractions Game:

Print Worksheets with a picture of a Pizza and some grids of 10 squares.

Tell kids this is One Pizza which is one whole of Pizza

Have the student use a Sketch to distribute the pizza among his two friends.

Introduce the concept of half of a whole.

Half = 1 whole pizza divided into 2 equal parts

= 1 ÷ 2 also written as

This is a fractional number because it does not represent the whole but only represents a fragment or a part of the whole. So, a whole is complete and a fraction is a part of that complete entity.

Have the kid shade one square in the grid in the worksheet.

Ask the kid how many are shaded and how many are in total.

Explain that the grid is considered as one whole and it is divided into 10 equal parts. The shaded region is 1 part out of the whole 10 parts. So, this is represented as and called as one-tenth. Conversely, 10 parts of these one-tenths will make a whole.

Both the above activities will make the kid understand decimals from two perspectives. The Pizza activity explains the concept of the whole as 1 and the grid activity explains the concept that whole can be 10 also. As the kid understood the difference between a part and a whole, introduce decimals as a form of representation to write fractional parts of a whole.

What is a Decimal:

A whole pizza and a slice of one-tenth of a pizza are written as 1.1 pizzas. This form of writing whole and fractional part separated by a point in between is decimal form. When there is only one whole pizza and no fractional part along with it, it is expressed as 1.0 pizza. Here 1 on the left of the point represents the whole pizza and 0 on the right to the point represents no extra slices of the pizza.

Print Worksheet with number lines as given above.

In the first number line, it is observed that the line is divided into 10 equal parts.

In the second number line, it is observed that 1 Whole from the previous number line is further subdivided into 10 equal parts. It is shown in an expanded form. As 10 parts are divided from 1 whole, each sub part is called as one-tenth written in decimal form as 0.1

In the third number line, it is observed that the one-tenth is further subdivided into 10 equal parts. This means the original 1 part is divided into hundred equal parts which become one-hundredth written in decimal form as 0.01

In the fourth number line, it is observed that the one-hundredth is further subdivided into 10 equal parts. This means the original 1 part is divided into thousand equal parts which become one-thousandth written in decimal form as 0.001

Decimal is a form of writing whole and fractional part together with a dot or point in between. The point is placed at the bottom only. The point when placed in the center becomes notation for multiplication of 1 and 2. It is important to stress on the placement of the point in decimal numbers. This activity helps the child to understand the concept of what is a decimal. Have the student understand that how these numbers are represented on the number line and proceed to the next worksheet of Decimal Number Line.

Decimal Number Line Worksheet:

In this worksheet, we notice that by subdividing each part into much more demarcations, we are defining a precise and refined location on the number line. Therefore, decimals help in bringing out the refinement in the whole numbers by bringing as much precision as possible through the fractional part present right side of the point.

Example: A trouser of waist length 21 inches is too tight for James and another trouser of 22 inches is too loose. What could be the problem? James has a waist length somewhere in between 21 inches and 22 inches. Decimals come to rescue here to find out the perfect trouser that fits James. The distance between 21 inches and 22 inches is one inch.

After measuring, it is observed that the waist length of James is 21.346. What do the digits 346 to the right of the decimal point signify? It is the fractional part of the decimal point, but does the order 3,4 and 6 matter after the decimal point? In Whole numbers, what does 21 signify? Have the child remember the place value concept of tens and ones. Similarly, in place value decimals, the places are tenths, hundredths, thousandths and so on. It is observed in the previous number line activity how tenths are subdivided and then comes hundredths and then for further distinction thousandths are marked.

Place Value Table:

Give the below decimal place value worksheets with empty rows of place value with decimal for the decimal system from thousands place to thousandths place.

Give decimal numbers to fill in the empty rows. Explain the place values of decimals and the significance of the places using the number line worksheet. The expanded form of a decimal number 6341.749 is as follows:

6345.749 = 6 × 1000 + 3 × 100 + 4 × 10 + 5 × 1 + 7 × + 4 × + 9 ×

The place value of decimals is of base ten. As noticed in the number line, base ten implies that a whole is divided into equal parts of 10 or multiples of 10.

Example: How to express in decimals.

= 0.273

How would a fractional part of denominator other than ten or multiples of 10 be expressed in decimal form? As it is learned that is expressed as 0.1, how is concerted in decimal form? This can be done by division only. When 13 is divided by 2, the quotient is 6 and the remainder is 1. Thus the number becomes 6 . This is the key to decimals as 6 is the whole number and is the fractional part.

Decimals make mathematical operations simpler between two fractional parts. For example: Adding 2 and 3 is same as adding 2.1 and 3.06 which is 5.16 by adding digits of the same place values as a normal addition.

What is 3 as a decimal? As 3 is a whole number and it doesn't have a fractional part, it can be simply expressed as 3.0 or 3.00 or 3.000. One can put as many zeroes as one wishes to the extreme right after the decimal. This logic is the foundation for decimal conversion.

Conversion of 13/2 in decimal system:

Whole number 13 is expressed as 13.0 and the division is continued

Convert 8/10 as a decimal number using division as decimal converter.

More Conversion problems:

What is 1/5 as a decimal?

1/5 = 2/10 (By multiplying 2 on both numerator and denominator to make the denominator 10) = 0.2

What is 2/5 as a decimal?

2/5 = 4/10 = 0.4

What is 3/5 as a decimal?

3/5 = 6/10 = 0.6

Similarly, what is 4/5 as a decimal may be solved by multiplying both numerator and denominator by 2 to make the denominator 10. Therefore 4/5 = 8/10 = 0.8

What is 3/10 as a decimal?

3/10 = 0.3

Similarly, what is 3/5 as a decimal? It is 6/10 = 0.6

5 as a decimal can be written as 5.0

Express one-third as a decimal

1/3 is a non-terminating decimal. It is 0.333 with 3 repeating. Such decimals with a repeating pattern of digits are called recurring decimals or repeating decimals. 1/3 is expressed as 0.333 when rounded up to the thousandth place of the decimal system. Alternately, recurring decimals are expressed with a bar on the top of the repeating digit after the decimal point. Therefore, the solution to the question what is one-third as a decimal is answered as 0.

10 as a decimal is 10.00 when expressed in the decimal system up to hundredth's place.

4 as a decimal is 4.000 when expressed in the decimal system up to thousandth's place.

3 as a decimal is 3.0 when expressed in decimals up to tenths place.

6 as a decimal is 6.0 when expressed in decimals up to tenths place.

5/4 as a decimal. As 4 can be expressed in terms of a nearest multiple of 10 which is 100 by multiplying with 25, we perform multiplication with 25 on numerator and denominator. This will make 5/4 = 125/100 = 1.25

5/3 as a decimal = 1.

4/6 as a decimal = 2/3 = 0.

What is 3/7 as a decimal?

When solved using division, 3/7 doesn't give a zero remainder. Such decimals are called non-terminating decimals. 3 has appeared as the remainder again while dividing. The quotient will repeat a pattern of 428571 again. Hence, it may be rounded off to thousandth place as 0.429 or expressed as 0.

Similarly, 6/7 as a decimal is 0.

Q1: How do we multiply decimals?
Ans: Multiplying decimals is similar to multiplication of whole numbers.Ignore the decimal point in the numbers and multiply decimals like whole numbers. Then, count the total number of decimal places (number of digits after the decimal point) in both the numbers. Put decimal point before as many digits as the total decimal places in both the numbers in the product to get correct answer.
Q2: What are some games on multiplication of numbers?
Ans: There are many grade appropriate games available for students on SplashLearn website which are suitable to apply the understanding of multiplication. To play fun games on multiplication, visit SplashLearn page and select your grade or find "multiplication games" in the tab "Math Games by Topics"; then your are ready to have fun while applying your knowledge.
Q3: How do we multiply decimals by 10s?
Ans: To multiply a decimal number by 10s, just move the decimal point in the first number towards the right after counting 0s in 10s.
Q4: How can we multiply by multiples of 10?
Ans: To multiply a number by multiples of 10, For example 50 X 90 ignore the zeroes (0s) in the numbers and multiply the usual way whole numbers are multiplied. that is multiply 5 and 9 = 45 (ignoring the 0s) Then, count the total number of zeroes in both multiplier and multiplicand (that is 2) and put them in the end of the product, which is two 0s after 45 = 4500. Hence, 50 X 90 = 4500.
Q5: How can we multiply numbers using area model?
Ans: To use area model, write both the multiplier and the multiplicand in expanded form. Place value of each digit in expanded form notation as the dimension of the rectangle on either side. Find the area of each rectangle using the formula length x width. Add all the areas of rectangles in the model to find the product.

What is Multiplication?

Multiplication is considered as a repeated addition. The multiplication tables and multiplication charts enable us to do this repeated addition in an efficient and fast way. Multiplication definition can also be considered as the inverse of division. There are multiple uses of multiplication in everyday life. In real life situations, also often the use of division and multiplication skills is required. For example, while handling money, sharing items between friends and cutting food into portions children are being introduced to the basics of the concepts of multiplication and division. Since they are introduced to the idea so early, they should be able to gain confidence in the subject and utilize these skills to solve problems in the later part of their life too.

Properties of Multiplication

Multiplication properties can also be used as strategies to multiply and divide. Examples:

If 6 × 4 = 24 is known, then 4 × 6 = 24 is also known. (Commutative property of multiplication.)

3 × 5 × 2 can be found by 3 × 5 = 15, then 15 × 2 = 30, or by 5 × 2 = 10, then 3 × 10 = 30. (Associative property of multiplication.)

Knowing that 8 × 5 = 40 and 8 × 2 = 16, one can find 8 × 7 as 8 × (5 + 2) = (8 × 5) + (8 × 2) = 40 + 16 = 56. (Distributive property.)

Math Multiplication Games

There are various math aids through which how to do multiplication can be taught to preschool kids. Two most fun multiplication games and math activities that can help children practice multiplication are multiplication bingo and multiplication snap.

Multiplication Bingo

This is a 2 or more-players multiplication facts games in which there are different BINGO sheets and a problem deck containing multiple multiplication problems. Bingo sheets have random numbers written in a 5 X 5 multiplication grid.

Each participant gets a BINGO sheet. Shuffle the problem deck and turn out one problem. Kids should solve the problem in their heads, then check their sheet to see if the answer is there. When a child has the answer her sheet, she can draw an "X" over it or place a counter on the correct box. The first player to have five correct answers in a row vertically, horizontally, or diagonally shouts out 'BINGO' and wins the game.

Multiplication Snap

The rules of times tables snap are simple. There are two sets of cards, one containing the 'times tables questions', and the other containing the 'answers'. At the start of the game, the cards should be shuffled, and distributed evenly to the players. The players keep their cards face down in a stack.

One by one, they take the top card from their stack and place it on a pile in the middle. When the card just placed matches the one before it, the players should call SNAP! and slap their hand on top of the middle pile. The first player to do this gets to keep all the cards in the pile. Some matches will be easy - for example if 24 is played on top of 24. Other matches will require knowledge of times tables - for example if 7x7 is played on top of 49. The most interesting matches of all will be when two matching question cards are played, for example, if 4x9 is played on top of 12x3.The winner is the player with the most cards left at the end.

Other multiplication math games to recall multiplication tables and multiplication drills and to do multiplication problems are:

Times What?

A deck of cards is needed to play this game. Take out 2 random cards from the deck. (example 2 and 4), Multiply the numbers (example: 2 x 4 = 8). The product is the number of points you keep. Repeat 4 more times. The player that has the most points after 5 turns win.

Multiplication Quiz

It is a board game with the objective to reach the finish point. The game has varied note cards of multiplication facts. The first player gets to study the note card with five facts on it for 30 seconds. After which player 2 will quiz the first player. If player 1 answers three or more problems correct, they can roll the dice and move the game piece the number shown on the dice. If two or less are answered correct, player 2 rolls the dice and moves. These steps are repeated till one of the players reaches the finish point.

The materials required to play this game are a game board, game pieces, and 2 dice. The objective is to be the first one to reach the end of the game board. The player who starts first rolls the two dice and multiplies the two numbers that appear (Example: Roll 4 on one dice and 5 on the other. That would equal 20.) The number of spaces moved is determined by the chart provided with the game. The second player repeats the same. Continue until a player reaches the end of the game board.

Building on 4th-grade math multiplication, students begin by decomposing numbers into base ten units in order to find products of single-digit by multi-digit numbers. Students use the distributive property and multiply using number disks to model. Practice with number disks is used for multi digit multiplication problems with recordings as partial products. Finally, the partial products method, the standard algorithm, and the area model are compared and connected by the distributive property

5th-grade math gives students the opportunity to apply their new multiplication skills to solve multi-step multiplication word problems and multiplicative comparison problems.

Multiplication by 10, 100, and 1,000

Children examine multiplication patterns when multiplying numbers by 10, 100, and 1,000. Reasoning between multiplication arrays and written sums on multiplication worksheets allows kids to see the role of place value units in multiplication. The multiplicative comparison is carried forward to grade 5 in the context of area and in the context of both calculations and multiplication word problems

Multiplication practice is required to develop procedural fluency. Children should especially learn the multiplication tables by representing it through multiplication table charts. Multiplication facts can be taught to kids by means of multiplication rap.

Multiplication Strategies for 5th Graders

1. Using Number Disks

Let us use the number disk method to find the product of 3 x 10. Suppose there is a group of 3 ones. Now multiply 3 ones by ten i.e. just move each disk over to the tens place and get 3 tens. Draw an arrow indicating that the disks shift one place to the left, label it × 10 and write 3 ones × 10 = 3 tens. How to multiply the result further by 10? Do the same thing again. Move them one more place into the hundreds and get 3 hundreds.

Number disks can also be used to represent products when multiplying by a two-digit number. For example Solve 15 × 10

2. Using Area Model

This model can be used to represent two-digit multiplication problems and find the solution through easy visual representation. Let us see how to multiply 10 by a two-digit multiple of 10. Example: Solve 50 × 40

Area model can also be used to represent the product of a two-digit multiple of 10 by a two-digit number. For example: Find the product of 60 and 34 using an area model.

First, draw an area model to represent 60 × 34 and then write the expressions that solve for the area of each rectangle. The area of the small rectangle is 6 tens times 4 and the area of the larger rectangle is 6 tens times 3 tens. Now add the areas: 240 + 1,800 = 2,040. Hence, 60 × 34 = 2,040.

3. Using Place Value Chart

Let us solve double digit multiplication of 40 ×

Other ways to write the expression are:

40 × 22 = (4 × 10) × 22

40 × 22 = 4 × (10 × 22)

40 × 22 = 10 × (4 × 22)

Express 22 on the place value chart. 10 × 22 is 2 hundreds and 2 tens.

Show 4 times as many i.e. draw disks to show 3 more groups of 2 hundreds 2 tens.

You will get: 8 hundreds and 8 tens. Therefore, 4 × (10 × 22) = 880 or 40 × 22 = 880.

Next let kids see that they can conceive the problem as 40 times 22, without breaking the process into the two steps of multiplying by 4 and 10 in whatever order as below:

4. Using Partial Products

Partial product method can be used to Multiply two-digit by two-digit numbers. This method pre-requires the area model. To find the product of 23 and 31 first draw an area model to represent 23 × 31 and then write the expressions that solve for the area of each rectangle. The area of each rectangle gives partial products. Summation of all partial products yields the final area. In this example, the area model gives 4 smaller rectangles with partial areas as- 9 tens, 3 ones, 6 hundreds and 2 tens. The sum is 6 hundreds, 11 tens and 3 ones. 11 tens can be regrouped as 1 hundred and 1 tens. Hence, the final sum will be 713. That means that 23 × 31 = 713.

Every week my students turn in their Math Journals so I can review their work for that week. I use it as a formative grade to help me track my students progress.

The rubric is on a scale of 1-4 for a possibility of earning 16 total points. I then divide the total # of point the student earned by 16 to get the grade I would enter into the grade book.

There are two pages so you can print multiple per page.

I hope you enjoy this product!
