Today for math we had to do a google doc sheet about Mixed numbers,Improper fractions and Equivalent fractions. we had to draw or take a picture of the Fraction and then write down the name and put in the Picture and on the bottom we had to answer these Other Questions and we had to put in a picture and we had to write how we got the answer and we had to do the answer on a number line.

8/6	Improper
3/5	Equivalent

1. Kay had ½ a piece of ribbon. Meghan had 2 ¼  pieces of ribbon. Emily had ⅜  piece of ribbon. How much ribbon did they have altogether?

Draw a picture

Add it up on the number line:

2 wholes + 2 Havles + 2 Qauters+ 3 eights

_________________________________________________________2 1-8s_

Solve with numbers:

Write the answer in a sentence:

The answer is 2 1-8s.Because the 2 eights make 1-2 so we get another 1-2.That other 1-2 makes a whole so it is 2- 1-8.
