We already know a little bit about fractions from our last unit on percentages - we know how to change a fraction into a decimal and into a percentage! We also reviewed what proper, improper and mixed fractions were, and how to change one into the other.
In grade 7, we learned how to add and subtract fractions (Common denominators for everyone!). In this unit, we will review these operations and also focus on multiplying and dividing fractions of all types.
