Add Mixed Numbers With Like Denominators (C)

Mix things things up in your elementary math class with a series of problem-solving exercises. Presented with a series of mixed number word problems, young mathematicians are asked to solve them by using either visual fraction...

Looking to drill your upper elementary schoolers on their ability to add mixed numbers with like denominators? A cartoon at the top reminds learners how to tackle each problem (starting with the whole numbers and moving to the...

Practice adding mixed numbers with like denominators with your upper elementary schoolers. The cartoon figure at the top of the page reminds learners how to tackle the problem. There are 14 problems listed. 

Sometimes renaming the first mixed number in a subtraction problem makes it much easier to solve the rest of the problem! Learners solve seven problems, and the second page details all of the necessary steps to reach the conclusion. 

In this adding mixed numbers worksheet, students find the sums by adding mixed numbers with common denominators and reducing the answer to lowest terms. Students solve 7 problems.

Young scholars solve 14 problems in which mixed numbers with like denominators are subtracted. An example is provided on this page.

Here is a great video explaining multiplying a fraction by a whole number. Sal shows students how to put a whole number over 1 to multiply it by a fraction. He simplifies his answer and writes it as a mixed number.

This video on changing improper fractions to mixed numbers would nicely compliment the Khan Academy video on writing mixed numbers as improper fractions. Sal first shows students how to convert improper fractions. Then, he uses drawings...

Before Sal can divide a mixed number, he has to rewrite it as an improper fraction. He explains that dividing a fraction is the same as multiplying it by its reciprocal and that you can "cancel out" numbers to make multiplying easier.

A step-by-step explanation about improper fractions being changed into mixed numbers. The instructor uses diagrams in several examples which gives a visual explanation of the equation.
