Group 3 and 4


 Put the following fractions in order with the smallest first:                                
   1        1        5        2
   2        4        6        3

1.  Change all the fractions to the same denominator.


2.  In this case we will use 12 because 2, 4, 6, and 3 all go into it.

1 x 6    1x3     5 x2    2 x4
                                        2 x6     4 x3    6 x2    3 x4

3.  Your fractions will now be: 6       3       10      8
                                           12      12      12      12

4.  Now put your fractions in order (smallest to biggest.) 3     6       8       10
                                                                                  12    12      12      12

5.  Change back, keeping them in order.   1        1        2        5
                                                               4        2        3        6




Put these fractions in descending order.
1          3          5         1          5
3          4         12        2          6


 


1          2          4          1          7
15        3          5          3          15



3
          1          7          2          1
4          6          12        3          2


 


2          5          1          2          1
3          9          6          9          2
