Fraction Frenzy #1

1. Does it help to know benchmark fractions such as 1/2 and if so, how?

  1. Benchmark fractions are very important becasue they tell us how much we have until we are to another whole number. For example if we were at 1/3 we know that we have two more sections just like that to go.

  2. Example, if you have 2\5 you know you need
    3\5 more to get a whole. 3\5 +2\5 = 1

  4. Benchmark fractions have quarters to equal a dollar. They are like 1/2,1/3,1/4. Sometimes they have doubles. Our class knows doubles and halfs really well.

  21. landmark numbers are easy to remember because they are numbers when you count a $1.00 but 10 is not a number when you count a $1.00.
