For this inequality worksheet, students solve inequality equations and graph the solution on a number line. They add and subtract fractions with variables and unlike denominators. Students solve absolute variable equations with one...

This unit on fractions allows for upper-aged elementary learners to explore ways to find the greatest common factor and least common multiple of two numbers. Ultimately, young mathematicians will be able to identify equivalent fractions,...

Subtracting mixed numbers is easy when the fractions have the same denominator. Here, young mathematicians are prompted to find out how many pounds of peaches are left after Alfredo gives some pounds to his neighbor.

This PowerPoint demonstrates how to add mixed numbers with unlike denominators. The slides display examples of problems, along with steps that students can easily follow.

In this fractions worksheet, students solve and complete 19 different problems that include various types of fractions. First, they find the sum or the difference in each of the given fractions, reducing to lowest terms when possible....

Third graders complete a worksheet.  In this fractions lesson, 3rd graders review fraction vocabulary, use the SmartBoard to divide fractions and complete stations where they work with fractional parts of a whole.

Students use candy bars, beef jerky, and brownies to represent different fractions. Students also use colored multi-link cubes or blocks to illustrate the same representations of fractions. Students work with a partner to create diagrams...

Challenge your fifth graders with a worksheet on subtracting fractions. Each subtraction problem features fractions with different denominators, and prompts learners to follow several steps to fully reduce the answer. A great way to...

In this rational number worksheet, high schoolers add and subtract fractions containing variables. They find common denominators and solve for the unknown. This four-page worksheet contains eighteen problems. Answers are listed on the...

Opioid abuse is becoming a national crisis, but combating the influence of opioids requires examining the ways it affects individual communities. A thorough teacher guide provides step-by-step instructions about implementing an...

Learners calculate the pixel density of a specific cell phone using the concept of similarity. They use information from the cell phone's website to make their calculations and then compare their results to the posted information.

In this fractions worksheet, 5th graders write the factors of 12 and 16, write the greatest common factor of 12 and 16, divide by the greatest common factor for 12/16 and write what the simplest form is of the fraction 12/16. Students...

Ninth graders begin the lesson by watching a PowerPoint on the functions of cities. In groups, they use the internet to research various cultures throughout history and the cities that were formed at the time. They present their findings...

Students design their own energy conservation lesson plan to teach elementary school students. They use this lesson to determine if they would like to pursue a teaching career

I'm a fan of clearing the denominator, but solvers can also find common denominators and cross multiply to solve the linear equations on the worksheet. Each of the six problems has rational coefficients.

Fifth graders will be clamoring for s'more fractions after they finish this one! Motivated by a chocolate bar used for a yummy campfire treat, learners have to decide how to add fractions without like denominators by discovering the...

Find a way to work with rates. The 23rd part in a 29-part series presents work problems for the class to solve given work rates. Pupils compare rates to determine which is faster. Some problems require learners to convert the rates to...

That's radical! Simplifying radicals may not be exciting, but it is an important skill. A math instructional activity provides explanations of properties used throughout the material. Scholars practice skills needed to multiply...

Explore the patterns of fractions that produce finite and infinite decimals. The sixth lesson of the series asks learners to determine a similar feature of fractions that produce finite decimals. Using the patterns, pupils create...

Don't discount how much your pupils understand percents! The 27th lesson in a series of 29 presents a problem to find the cost of a discounted outfit. Small groups determine either the original price or the discount received given the...

Introduce your classes to a new world of mathematics. Pupils learn to call trigonometric ratios by their given names: sine, cosine, and tangent. They find ratios and use known ratios to discover missing sides of similar...

In this elementary math instructional activity, students place the symbols for greater than, less than, or equal to between two fractions. They may need to find a common denominator to make the comparison.

Individuals learn to divide and conquer complex numbers with a little help from moduli and conjugates. In the second lesson on complex number division, the class takes a closer look at the numerator and denominator of the multiplicative...

0/0 doesn't equal 0! Begin this lesson by allowing the class to explore the concept of dividing by zero. The introduction allows for discovery and provides meaningful examples of dividing by zero. This understanding leads to solving...
