• Each picture illustrates half of a circle that has been divided a different way.
The picture with the fewest pieces is __12. Each of the other fractions __48, __36 , __24 ( )
reduces to __12 .
We reduce when we use the fewest number of fraction pieces to show the amount.
We convert when we change a fraction to a mixed number or a whole number.
• When adding mixed numbers:
1. Add the fractions.
2. Add the whole numbers.
3. Reduce or convert the fraction if needed.
Practice:
Reduce 1–3.
