- The teacher will present a video about adding and subtracting dissimilar
fractions.

C. Discussion

- The teacher will ask if the pupils understood the video.

- Ask the students again if what the video is all about.
- Discuss more about adding and subtracting dissimilar fractions by
showing two problems.

A. Adding Dissimilar Fractions

A puppy weighs 4/5 kilogram. A rabbit weighs 3/4 kilogram. What is the
combined weight of the two pet animals?

- Ask the pupils to give the fractions found in the problem.

- The teacher will ask what operation will use.
- Ask someone to solve the problem.

B. Subtracting Dissimilar Fractions

Alma has 8/12 bibingka. She shared 5/8 with her classmate. What part of
the bibingka was left?

- Ask the pupils to give the fractions found in the problem.

- The teacher will ask what operation will use.
- Ask someone to solve the problem.

D. Generalization
- The teacher will ask the meaning of dissimilar fraction.
- Short recap about the steps in adding and subtracting dissimilar fractions.

Adding Dissimilar Fractions Subtracting Dissimilar Fractions

1. Multiply the denominators.
2. Cross multiply. Multiply the
numerator of the first fraction to the
denominator of the second fraction.
Then, multiply the numerator of the
second fraction to the denominator of
the first fraction.
3. Add the product of the step 2.
4. Reduce to lowest term.
1. Multiply the denominators.
2. Cross multiply. Multiply the
numerator of the first fraction to the
denominator of the second fraction.
Then, multiply the numerator of the
second fraction to the denominator of
the first fraction.
3. Subtract the product of the step 2.
4. Reduce to lowest term.

E. Application

- The teacher will give an activity. An envelope will be picked by the

representative of each group
- Giving of directions.
