Lesson Note: Addition and Subtraction of Fractions with the Same Denominator
Topic: Addition and Subtraction of Fractions with the Same Denominator
Subject: Mathematics
Class: Basic 3
Curriculum: Hybrid
Lesson Objectives:
- Write numbers in words up to 800.
- Add and subtract fractions with the same denominator.
- Solve real-life problems on fractions.
Section 1: Writing Numbers in Words up to 800
- Write numbers in words up to 800:
- 700 = seven hundred
- 750 = seven hundred and fifty
- 799 = seven hundred and ninety-nine
- 800 = eight hundred
Section 2: Addition of Fractions with the Same Denominator
- To add fractions with the same denominator, add the numerators and keep the same denominator.
- Examples:
- 1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4
- 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6
- 3/8 + 2/8 = 5/8
Section 3: Subtraction of Fractions with the Same Denominator
- To subtract fractions with the same denominator, subtract the numerators and keep the same denominator.
- Examples:
- 3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4
- 5/6 - 2/6 = 3/6
- 7/8 - 3/8 = 4/8
Section 4: Real-Life Problems on Fractions
- Solve real-life problems:
- If you have 1/4 of a pizza and your friend gives you 1/4 of a pizza, how much pizza do you have now?
- If you have 3/8 of a bag of apples and you give 1/8 to your brother, how much of the bag do you have left?
Remember:
- Always add or subtract the numerators when the denominators are the same.
- Practice writing numbers in words up to 800 and solving fraction problems.
