INTRODUCTION:
Evaluate the following. i) 2/3+1/2 , ii) 1/3-4/5.
PRESENTATION:
Fractions are multiplied or divided like whole numbers but wit some little adjustments.
a) Multiplication of Fractions : To multiply fractions , multiply numerators and denominators.
Example 1:Evaluate and simplify as far as possible each of the following.
i) 2/3×4/5, ii)1/7×5/6, iii) 8/3×6/5, 7/4×2/3.
Solution
i) 2/3×4/5=8/15.
ii) 1/7×5/6=5/42.
iii) 8/3×6/5=48/15
8/3×6/5=16/5.
iv ) 7/4×2/3=14/12
7/4×2/3=7/6.
b) Division of Fractions: To divide two fractions, invert the divisor and change the operation from division to multiplication and proceed as in multiplication above.
Example1: Evaluate and simplify your result as far as possible in each of the following:
i)1/3÷4/5, ii) 3/4÷1/6, iii) 7/4÷2/3, iv) 8/3÷4/5.
Solution
i)1/3÷4/5=1/3×5/4
1/3÷4/5=5/12.
ii) 3/4÷1/6=3/4×6/1
3/4÷1/6=18/4
3/4÷1/6=9/2.
iii) 7/4÷2/3=7/4×3/2
7/4÷2/3=21/8.
iv) 8/3÷ 4/5=8/3×5/4
8/3÷4/5=40/12
8/3÷4/5=10/3.
The fractions treated so far are called VULGAR FRACTIONS. We are going to the next group of fractions called DECIMAL FRACTIONS.
DECIMAL FRACTIONS: This is a fraction expressed in tenths, hundredths, thousandth etc. Examples here are 0.2, 0.25, 0.625 etc.We can convert from decimal fractions to vulgar fractions and vice versa.
Example: a)Change each of the following to vulgar fractions; i) 0.2, ii) 0.25, iii) 0.36
b) Change each of the following to decimal fractions; i) 2/5, ii) 8/25 .
Solution.
a) i) 0.2= 2/10
0.2=1/5.
ii) 0.25=25/100
0.25=1/4.
iii) 0.36=36/100
0.36=9/25.
b) i) 2/5=0.4 by long division method.
ii) 8/25=0.32 by long division method.
EVALUATION:
Evaluate and simplify your answer to its lowest term in each of the following:
a) i) 3/8×1/5, ii)7/2×13/5, iii) 2/3÷8/11, iv) 7/2÷13/5
b) Change to vulgar fraction; i) 0.32,
c) Change to decimal fraction; i)5/8
SUMMARY:
>When multiplying fractions, multiply numerators separately from denominators.
> When dividing fractions, change the operation from division to multiplication and invert the divisor the proceed as though you were multiplying.
>To change a decimal fraction to vulgar, move the decimal point to the right hand side of the number in question. Each digit crossed by the decimal point is equal to a tenth.It means 0.2=2/10, 0.24=24/100, etc.
>To change from vulgar fraction to decimal fraction use long division.
CONCLUSION:
Assignment:Evaluate and simplify each of the following:
i) 11/4× 1/5, ii) 2/7÷4/3 iii) (2/3×1/4)÷(15/4×5/2) iv) (3/5+1/3)×3/5, v)(3/4-1/3)÷3/4

Personality development and public speaking are great skills to learn.People also need to study math in order to improve upon creative thinking and communication skills.Learners of math enjoy it if lesson notes are well prepared.See sample lesson notes at https://awahconnection.blogspot.com for guides.
