4. Motivation

Imagined, you order a pizza which

has 8 slices. Your friends eat all the 8 slices.
And you realize, you didn’t have any. So,
you order another pizza. After eating 2 slices
from it, you realize you are done eating.

So, how much of the pizza did your -The total pizza eaten is slices.
friends, and you have in all?
What kind of fraction is it? -Improper fraction
How many whole pizza and fractional
-1 whole pizza and of a pizza
part of a pizza are eaten?

How are you going to write it? - 1

What kind of fraction is it? - Mixed Numbers

5. Presentation

A. Changing improper fraction to mixed

numbers and vice versa
1. Improper fraction to Mixed Numbers

 Divide the numerator to

denominator
1
√
-8
2

 The quotient becomes the whole

number part. The remainder
becomes the numerator and the
divisor becomes the
denominator of the fraction.

1 – whole number
denominator - √
-8
2 – numerator

So, =1

Another rule:
 If there were no remainder the
improper fraction would simplify
to a whole number.
For example:
=2
=1

2. Mixed Number to Improper Fraction

1
 Multiply the whole number by
 the denominator

1x8=8

 Add the product to the

numerator
8 + 2 = 10
 Write the sum over the given
denominator

So, =

B. Another examples
Change the following into improper
fraction.
1. = 3 x 5 =15 + 2 = 17
So, =
2. -

3. -

Change the following into mixed

number.
1. =
3
√
-18
1
2. - 2

3. - 2

6. Hands-On (Group Activity)

The pupils will be group into two.

Group 1 Group 1

1. 4. 1. = 4. =4

2. 5. 2. =4 5. =5

3. 3. =4

7. Minds-On
A. Reporting of Outputs
B. Discussion
C. Generalization
How do we change improper - To change an improper fraction
fraction to mixed forms? to a mixed number, divide the
numerator by the denominator.
The quotient becomes the whole
number part. The remainder
becomes the numerator and the
divisor becomes the
denominator of the fraction.

How do we change mixed forms to - To change a mixed number to

improper fractions? an improper fraction, multiply the
whole number by the
denominator, add the product
to the numerator then write the
sum over the given denominator.

D. Application
Fill in the boxes with the correct
number to make each item correct.
1. 6 = 4. 10 = 1. 4.

2. = 5. = 2. 6 5. 2

3. = 6. = 3. 3 6. 2

IV. Evaluation

A. Change the following mixed number

into improper fractions:
1. 7 1.

2. 6 2.

3. 3 3.
 4. 2 4.

5. 7 5.
