Some students will simplify before converting and some prefer to do it after. On the second board (challenge) all the improper fractions need to be simplified to get to the mixed number on the outer rectangle/path. This is to challenge the students in finding the answer and think about simplifying it as well.
On the first board, only some of the tiles have improper fractions that are not simplified while their mixed numbers show the simplified version. The students can correct themselves and rethink their answer if it is not on the board. I also use the boards for discussions and as a worksheet type of activity where the students color the matching improper-mixed number in the same color or pattern. The fact that you can move in any direction gives you a chance to move closer to the number you need to make 3 connected ones. To convert mixed numbers to improper fractions you use the outer rectangle/path to move on and you mark the “answers” on the inner rectangle/path.
Converting mixed numbers to improper fractions The player with the most marked tiles wins. For a longer game, you can play until all the tiles are marked. the first player to mark 3 connected numbers is the winner. If the number is already marked you wait for your next turn. (green tiles are used as the other ones and can be marked). They find the mixed number on the outer rectangle/path and mark it with their colored pencil. Once they land on a tile they convert that fraction to a mixed number. They roll six-face dice and move in any direction. Step 3: The Denominator will be the same as original, i.e 7. Step 2: The integer part of the answer will be the integer part for a mixed fraction, i.e.
#Fraction to mixed fraction converter how to
The students start from any green tile on the inner (grey) rectangle/path. How to convert Improper fraction to a mixed fraction Step 1: Divide the Fraction’s numerator with the denominator, i.e. The game board print-out, one 6 face dice, color pencils one color for each player Converting improper fractions to mixed numbers. I have designed these simple games for my students to practice converting and also practice their multiplication and division skills. Once the students understand the concept with visual models they can use the algorithm to convert which is division or multiplication. They need to convert improper fractions into mixed numbers to get a simpler version of the number. Students often need to turn mixed numbers into improper fractions to add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions. Today I would like to share with you some games to practice converting improper fractions to mixed numbers and the reverse.
