What Grade 4 fractions covers

Fractions describe equal parts of a whole or equal parts of a group. Start with Types of Fractions, learn lowest terms in Simplifying Fractions, study both conversion directions in Converting Improper Fractions and Mixed Numbers, and explore Improper Fractions. Then learn Adding Fractions, Subtracting Fractions, and Multiplying Fractions, or begin with the short Fraction Operations overview.

Pictures make the size clear

A fraction model shows why the denominator controls the size of each part and why the numerator counts how many of those equal parts are present. Models are especially useful when a fraction is greater than one whole.

From visual grouping to efficient rules

Visual models show why equivalent fractions have the same value. Common factors then give an efficient way to simplify a fraction, while grouping and division explain how improper fractions connect to mixed numbers.
