Card 1Mixed to Improper Fractions

Convert the mixed fraction $3\frac{2}{5}$ into an improper fraction.

Answer

Step 1: Multiply the whole number by the denominator: $3 \times 5 = 15$.<br>Step 2: Add the numerator: $15 + 2 = 17$.<br>Step 3: Keep the same denominator: $\frac{17}{5}$.<br>Answer: $\frac{17}{5}$

Card 2Improper to Mixed Fractions

Convert $\frac{23}{4}$ into a mixed fraction.

Answer

Step 1: Divide the numerator by the denominator: $23 \div 4 = 5$ remainder $3$.<br>Step 2: The quotient is the whole number, remainder becomes the new numerator.<br>Answer: $5\frac{3}{4}$

Card 3Comparing Fractions

Which is greater: $\frac{3}{5}$ or $\frac{2}{3}$?

Answer

Step 1: Find LCM of denominators 5 and 3 = 15.<br>Step 2: Convert to like fractions: $\frac{3}{5} = \frac{9}{15}$, $\frac{2}{3} = \frac{10}{15}$.<br>Step 3: Compare numerators: $10 > 9$, so $\frac{2}{

Card 4Addition of Unlike Fractions

Add: $\frac{2}{7} + \frac{3}{14}$

Answer

Step 1: LCM of 7 and 14 = 14.<br>Step 2: Convert: $\frac{2}{7} = \frac{4}{14}$, $\frac{3}{14} = \frac{3}{14}$.<br>Step 3: Add numerators: $\frac{4 + 3}{14} = \frac{7}{14}$.<br>Step 4: Simplify: $\frac

Card 5Subtraction of Mixed Fractions

Subtract: $2\frac{1}{3} - 1\frac{1}{2}$

Answer

Step 1: Convert to improper fractions: $2\frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}$, $1\frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}$.<br>Step 2: LCM of 3 and 2 = 6.<br>Step 3: Convert: $\frac{7}{3} = \frac{14}{6}$, $\frac{3}{2} = \frac

Card 6Multiplication of Fractions

Multiply: $\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{7}{8}$

Answer

Step 1: Multiply numerators: $4 \times 7 = 28$.<br>Step 2: Multiply denominators: $5 \times 8 = 40$.<br>Step 3: Form fraction: $\frac{28}{40}$.<br>Step 4: Simplify: $\frac{28 \div 4}{40 \div 4} = \fra

Card 7Division of Fractions

Divide: $\frac{3}{4} \div \frac{2}{5}$

Answer

Step 1: Multiply by reciprocal: $\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{5}{2}$.<br>Step 2: Multiply numerators: $3 \times 5 = 15$.<br>Step 3: Multiply denominators: $4 \times 2 = 8$.<br>Step 4: Result: $\frac{15}{8

Card 8Reducing to Lowest Terms

Simplify: $\frac{48}{60}$ to its lowest terms.

Answer

Step 1: Find HCF of 48 and 60 = 12.<br>Step 2: Divide numerator and denominator by 12: $\frac{48 \div 12}{60 \div 12} = \frac{4}{5}$.<br>Answer: $\frac{4}{5}$
