Fifth grade math - Divide fractions by whole numbers

Fifth grade math – divide fractions by whole numbers.

A student has to know how to divide fractions by whole numbers, as it is fundamental in solving problems. Dividing mixed fractions by whole numbers is done as follows. First convert the mixed number (or mixed fraction) into improper fraction. Then multiply the denominator by the whole number. That will be the denominator of the answer (numerator is the same as that of fraction). For eg. Divide 3 1/2 by 8 = (7/2) / 8 = 7/(2×8) = 7/16. For dividing a whole number by a fraction, (If we are dividing by a mixed number, first convert it into improper fraction) multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number. This will give the numerator of the answer. Numerator of the fraction becomes denominator. For eg. Divide 7 by (3/8) = (7 x 8) / 3 = 56/3. Practice many problems on dividing fractions by whole numbers from dividing fractions worksheet and use other resources on this page to improve your skills.

Dividing Fractions with Whole Numbers

With our Dividing Fractions with Whole Numbers lesson plan, students learn how to solve division problems that include fractions.

Included with this lesson are some adjustments or additions that you can make if you’d like, found in the “Options for Lesson” section of the Classroom Procedure page. One of the optional additions to this lesson is to have your students create a poster showing how to divide whole numbers and fractions.

Description

Additional information, what our dividing fractions with whole numbers lesson plan includes.

Lesson Objectives and Overview: Dividing Fractions with Whole Numbers teaches students how to solve division problems that include unit fractions. At the end of the lesson, students will be able to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions. This lesson is for students in 5th grade.

Classroom Procedure

Every lesson plan provides you with a classroom procedure page that outlines a step-by-step guide to follow. You do not have to follow the guide exactly. The guide helps you organize the lesson and details when to hand out worksheets. It also lists information in the blue box that you might find useful. You will find the lesson objectives, state standards, and number of class sessions the lesson should take to complete in this area. In addition, it describes the supplies you will need as well as what and how you need to prepare beforehand.

Options for Lesson

Included with this lesson is an “Options for Lesson” section that lists a number of suggestions for activities to add to the lesson or substitutions for the ones already in the lesson. One optional addition to this lesson is to have your s tudents create a poster showing how to divide whole numbers and fractions. You could also use fraction manipulatives to show how to divide fractions by whole numbers or whole numbers by fractions. Finally, you could have your students write a paragraph explaining the process and steps without examples of images.

Teacher Notes

The teacher notes page includes a paragraph with additional guidelines and things to think about as you begin to plan your lesson. This page also includes lines that you can use to add your own notes as you’re preparing for this lesson.

DIVIDING FRACTIONS WITH WHOLE NUMBERS LESSON PLAN CONTENT PAGES

The Dividing Fractions with Whole Numbers lesson plan includes four pages of content. You’re probably familiar with how to divide whole numbers by other whole numbers, but did you know that all numbers can be divided? Quotients, or the answers to division problems, can be whole numbers, decimals, or written as fractions.

For example, if you want to split a sheet of paper in half, you’re dividing it by one-half to get two smaller sheets of paper or two halves of a single piece of paper. When added together, the pieces equal one whole piece of paper. We can divide all whole numbers by fractions and all fractions by whole numbers.

Dividing Fractions and Whole Numbers

Sometimes, you need to divide fractions by whole numbers or whole numbers by fractions. Maybe you have half of a pizza and you want to share it with three friends. You would write that division problem as 1/2 ÷ 3. To solve, you first change the whole number/divisor to a fraction: 3 = 3/1. Next, you invert (flip) the new fraction to make it 1/3. Third, you change the problem to multiplication: 1/2 x 1/3. Finally, multiply as usual: 1/2 x 1/3 = 1/6. Therefore, each of your friends receive 1/6th of the whole pizza!

You can also divide a whole number by a fraction. Say you have three whole pizzas and want to divide them into quarters. You would write that problem as 3 ÷ 1/4. To solve, you first change the whole number to a fraction: 3/1. Next, invert the divisor to make it 4/1. Third, change the problem to multiplication: 3/1 x 4/1. Finally, multiply: 3/1 x 4/1 = 12/1 = 12. Therefore, if you divide three whole pizzas by one quarter, you will end up with 12 total pieces.

Step-by-Step

As seen in the examples above, you always follow four basic steps when dividing fractions by whole numbers or whole numbers by fractions. First, change the whole numbers to fractions. Second, invert the fraction divisor. Third, change the problem to multiplication. Finally, multiply as usual!

After multiplying, make sure to change any improper fractions to mixed numbers or reduce if necessary. Dividing whole numbers with fractions is as easy as multiplying them, as long as you remember to invert the divisor and change the problem from division to multiplication.

DIVIDING FRACTIONS WITH WHOLE NUMBERS LESSON PLAN WORKSHEETS

The Dividing Fractions with Whole Numbers lesson plan includes three worksheets: an activity worksheet, a practice worksheet, and a homework assignment. You can refer to the guide on the classroom procedure page to determine when to hand out each worksheet.

CREATING PROBLEMS ACTIVITY WORKSHEET

Students will work with a partner to complete the activity. Each pair will create four word problems, two of which must include whole number division by a fraction and the other two of which must include a fraction being divided by a whole number. After they create their problems, they will swap them with another group to solve.

Students may also work either alone or in groups for this activity.

DIVISION PRACTICE WORKSHEET

The practice worksheet asks students to solve 24 division problems.

DIVIDING FRACTIONS WITH WHOLE NUMBERS HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT

For the homework assignment, students will solve five word problems. They will also use a drawing to show how to divide one-half of a rectangle by four.

Worksheet Answer Keys

This lesson plan includes answer keys for the practice worksheet and the homework assignment.  If you choose to administer the lesson pages to your students via PDF, you will need to save a new file that omits these pages. Otherwise, you can simply print out the applicable pages and keep these as reference for yourself when grading assignments.

How to Divide Whole Numbers by Fractions: Lesson 6 Homework Practice Answers

Dividing whole numbers by fractions is a skill that you will need to master in 6th grade math. In this article, we will show you how to divide whole numbers by fractions using two methods: using a number line and using the reciprocal. We will also provide you with some practice problems and answers from Lesson 6 Homework Practice of the Common Core Standards.

Method 1: Using a Number Line

A number line is a visual tool that helps you see how fractions and whole numbers relate to each other. To divide a whole number by a fraction using a number line, you need to follow these steps:

Draw a number line and mark zero and one on it.

Divide the number line into equal parts based on the denominator of the fraction. For example, if you are dividing by 1/2, divide the number line into two parts. If you are dividing by 1/3, divide the number line into three parts.

Count how many parts of the fraction fit into one whole. This is your answer. For example, if you are dividing 3 by 1/2, count how many halves fit into 3. You will see that there are 6 halves in 3, so 3 divided by 1/2 is 6.

Here is an example of how to use a number line to divide 9 by 5/3:

You can see that there are three parts of 5/3 in one whole, so one divided by 5/3 is 3. To find how many parts of 5/3 are in 9, you need to multiply 3 by 9. You will get 27, so 9 divided by 5/3 is 27.

Method 2: Using the Reciprocal

The reciprocal of a fraction is another fraction that has the numerator and denominator switched. For example, the reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1, and the reciprocal of 5/3 is 3/5. To divide a whole number by a fraction using the reciprocal, you need to follow these steps:

Write the whole number as a fraction with a denominator of one. For example, write 3 as 3/1.

Find the reciprocal of the fraction that you are dividing by. For example, find the reciprocal of 1/2, which is 2/1.

Multiply the two fractions together. To multiply fractions, you need to multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators. For example, multiply 3/1 by 2/1, which gives you 6/1.

Simplify the result if possible. To simplify a fraction, you need to divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF). For example, simplify 6/1 by dividing both numbers by their GCF, which is 6. You will get 1 as your answer.

Here is an example of how to use the reciprocal to divide 9 by 5/3:

You can see that multiplying by the reciprocal is equivalent to multiplying by three and dividing by five. You will get the same answer as using the number line method: 27.

Fractions Worksheets

Welcome to the fractions worksheets page at Math-Drills.com where the cup is half full! This is one of our more popular pages most likely because learning fractions is incredibly important in a person's life and it is a math topic that many approach with trepidation due to its bad rap over the years. Fractions really aren't that difficult to master especially with the support of our wide selection of worksheets.

This page includes Fractions worksheets for understanding fractions including modeling, comparing, ordering, simplifying and converting fractions and operations with fractions. We start you off with the obvious: modeling fractions. It is a great idea if students can actually understand what a fraction is, so please do spend some time with the modeling aspect. Relating modeling to real life helps a great deal too as it is much easier to relate to half a cookie than to half a square. Ask most students what you get if you add half a cookie and another half a cookie, and they'll probably let you know that it makes one delicious snack.

The other fractions worksheets on this page are devoted to helping students understand the concept of fractions. From comparing and ordering to simplifying and converting... by the time students master the material on this page, operations of fractions will be a walk in the park.

Fraction Circles

lesson 6 homework practice divide whole numbers by fractions

Fraction circle manipulatives are mainly used for comparing fractions, but they can be used for a variety of other purposes such as representing and identifying fractions, adding and subtracting fractions, and as probability spinners. There are a variety of options depending on your purpose. Fraction circles come in small and large versions, labeled and unlabeled versions and in three different color schemes: black and white, color, and light gray. The color scheme matches the fraction strips and use colors that are meant to show good contrast among themselves. Do note that there is a significant prevalence of color-blindness in the population, so don't rely on all students being able to differentiate the colors.

Suggested activity for comparing fractions: Photocopy the black and white version onto an overhead projection slide and another copy onto a piece of paper. Alternatively, you can use two pieces of paper and hold them up to the light for this activity. Use a pencil to represent the first fraction on the paper copy. Use a non-permanent overhead pen to represent the second fraction. Lay the slide over the paper and compare the two circles. You should easily be able to tell which is greater or lesser or if the two fractions are equal. Re-use both sheets by erasing the pencil and washing off the marker.

Adding fractions with fraction circles will involve two copies on paper. Cut out the fraction circles and segments of one copy and leave the other copy intact. To add 1/3 + 1/2, for example, place a 1/3 segment and a 1/2 segment into a circle and hold it over various fractions on the intact copy to see what 1/2 + 1/3 is equivalent to. 5/6 or 10/12 should work.

Fraction Strips

lesson 6 homework practice divide whole numbers by fractions

Fractions strips are often used for comparing fractions. Students are able to see quite easily the relationships and equivalence between fractions with different denominators. It can be quite useful for students to have two copies: one copy cut into strips and the other copy kept intact. They can then use the cut-out strips on the intact page to individually compare fractions. For example, they can use the halves strip to see what other fractions are equivalent to one-half. This can also be accomplished with a straight edge such as a ruler without cutting out any strips. Pairs or groups of strips can also be compared side-by-side if they are cut out. Addition and subtraction (etc.) are also possibilities; for example, adding a one-quarter and one-third can be accomplished by shifting the thirds strip so that it starts at the end of one-quarter then finding a strip that matches the end of the one-third mark (7/12 should do it).

Teachers might consider copying the fraction strips onto overhead projection acetates for whole class or group activities. Acetate versions are also useful as a hands-on manipulative for students in conjunction with an uncut page.

The "Smart" Fraction Strips include strips in a more useful order, eliminate the 7ths and 11ths strips as they don't have any equivalents and include 15ths and 16ths. The colors are consistent with the classic versions, so the two sets can be combined.

Comparing and Ordering Fractions

lesson 6 homework practice divide whole numbers by fractions

Comparing fractions involves deciding which of two fractions is greater in value or if the two fractions are equal in value. There are generally four methods that can be used for comparing fractions. First is to use common denominators . If both fractions have the same denominator, comparing the fractions simply involves comparing the numerators. Equivalent fractions can be used to convert one or both fractions, so they have common denominators. A second method is to convert both fractions to a decimal and compare the decimal numbers. Visualization is the third method. Using something like fraction strips , two fractions can be compared with a visual tool. The fourth method is to use a cross-multiplication strategy where the numerator of the first fraction is multiplied by the denominator of the second fraction; then the numerator of the second fraction is multiplied by the denominator of the first fraction. The resulting products can be compared to decide which fraction is greater (or if they are equal).

  • Comparing Proper Fractions Comparing Proper Fractions to Sixths ✎ Comparing Proper Fractions to Ninths (No Sevenths) ✎ Comparing Proper Fractions to Ninths ✎ Comparing Proper Fractions to Twelfths (No Sevenths; No Elevenths) ✎ Comparing Proper Fractions to Twelfths ✎

The worksheets in this section also include improper fractions. This might make the task of comparing even easier for some questions that involve both a proper and an improper fraction. If students recognize one fraction is greater than one and the other fraction is less than one, the greater fraction will be obvious.

  • Comparing Proper and Improper Fractions Comparing Proper and Improper Fractions to Sixths ✎ Comparing Proper and Improper Fractions to Ninths (No Sevenths) ✎ Comparing Proper and Improper Fractions to Ninths ✎ Comparing Proper and Improper Fractions to Twelfths (No Sevenths; No Elevenths) ✎ Comparing Proper and Improper Fractions to Twelfths ✎ Comparing Improper Fractions to Sixths ✎ Comparing Improper Fractions to Ninths (No Sevenths) ✎ Comparing Improper Fractions to Ninths ✎ Comparing Improper Fractions to Twelfths (No Sevenths; No Elevenths) ✎ Comparing Improper Fractions to Twelfths ✎

This section additionally includes mixed fractions. When comparing mixed and improper fractions, it is useful to convert one of the fractions to the other's form either in writing or mentally. Converting to a mixed fraction is probably the better route since the first step is to compare the whole number portions, and if one is greater than the other, the proper fraction portion can be ignored. If the whole number portions are equal, the proper fractions must be compared to see which number is greater.

  • Comparing Proper, Improper and Mixed Fractions Comparing Proper, Improper and Mixed Fractions to Sixths ✎ Comparing Proper, Improper and Mixed Fractions to Ninths (No Sevenths) ✎ Comparing Proper, Improper and Mixed Fractions to Ninths ✎ Comparing Proper, Improper and Mixed Fractions to Twelfths (No Sevenths; No Elevenths) ✎ Comparing Proper, Improper and Mixed Fractions to Twelfths ✎

Many of the same strategies that work for comparing fractions also work for ordering fractions. Using manipulatives such as fraction strips, using number lines, or finding decimal equivalents will all have your student(s) putting fractions in the correct order in no time. We've probably said this before, but make sure that you emphasize that when comparing or ordering fractions, students understand that the whole needs to be the same. Comparing half the population of Canada with a third of the population of the United States won't cut it. Try using some visuals to reinforce this important concept. Even though we've included number lines below, feel free to use your own strategies.

Simplifying & Converting Fractions Worksheets

lesson 6 homework practice divide whole numbers by fractions

Rounding fractions helps students to understand fractions a little better and can be applied to estimating answers to fractions questions. For example, if one had to estimate 1 4/7 × 6, they could probably say the answer was about 9 since 1 4/7 is about 1 1/2 and 1 1/2 × 6 is 9.

Learning how to simplify fractions makes a student's life much easier later on when learning operations with fractions. It also helps them to learn that different-looking fractions can be equivalent. One way of demonstrating this is to divide out two equivalent fractions. For example 3/2 and 6/4 both result in a quotient of 1.5 when divided. By practicing simplifying fractions, students will hopefully recognize unsimplified fractions when they start adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing with fractions.

Multiplying Fractions

lesson 6 homework practice divide whole numbers by fractions

Multiplying fractions is usually less confusing operationally than any other operation and can be less confusing conceptually if approached in the right way. The algorithm for multiplying is simply multiply the numerators then multiply the denominators. The magic word in understanding the multiplication of fractions is, "of." For example what is two-thirds OF six? What is a third OF a half? When you use the word, "of," it gets much easier to visualize fractions multiplication. Example: cut a loaf of bread in half, then cut the half into thirds. One third OF a half loaf of bread is the same as 1/3 x 1/2 and tastes delicious with butter.

Dividing Fractions

lesson 6 homework practice divide whole numbers by fractions

Conceptually, dividing fractions is probably the most difficult of all the operations, but we're going to help you out. The algorithm for dividing fractions is just like multiplying fractions, but you find the inverse of the second fraction or you cross-multiply. This gets you the right answer which is extremely important especially if you're building a bridge. We told you how to conceptualize fraction multiplication, but how does it work with division? Easy! You just need to learn the magic phrase: "How many ____'s are there in ______? For example, in the question 6 ÷ 1/2, you would ask, "How many halves are there in 6?" It becomes a little more difficult when both numbers are fractions, but it isn't a giant leap to figure it out. 1/2 ÷ 1/4 is a fairly easy example, especially if you think in terms of U.S. or Canadian coins. How many quarters are there in a half dollar?

Adding Fractions

lesson 6 homework practice divide whole numbers by fractions

Adding fractions requires the annoying common denominator. Make it easy on your students by first teaching the concepts of equivalent fractions and least common multiples. Once students are familiar with those two concepts, the idea of finding fractions with common denominators for adding becomes that much easier. Spending time on modeling fractions will also help students to understand fractions addition. Relating fractions to familiar examples will certainly help. For example, if you add a 1/2 banana and a 1/2 banana, you get a whole banana. What happens if you add a 1/2 banana and 3/4 of another banana?

A common strategy to use when adding mixed fractions is to convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions, complete the addition, then switch back. Another strategy which requires a little less brainpower is to look at the whole numbers and fractions separately. Add the whole numbers first. Add the fractions second. If the resulting fraction is improper, then it needs to be converted to a mixed number. The whole number portion can be added to the original whole number portion.

Subtracting Fractions

lesson 6 homework practice divide whole numbers by fractions

There isn't a lot of difference between adding and subtracting fractions. Both require a common denominator which requires some prerequisite knowledge. The only difference is the second and subsequent numerators are subtracted from the first one. There is a danger that you might end up with a negative number when subtracting fractions, so students might need to learn what it means in that case. When it comes to any concept in fractions, it is always a good idea to relate it to a familiar or easy-to-understand situation. For example, 7/8 - 3/4 = 1/8 could be given meaning in the context of a race. The first runner was 7/8 around the track when the second runner was 3/4 around the track. How far ahead was the first runner? (1/8 of the track).
