Mathematics 5: Fractions and Decimals

When you're working with fractions, being able to change them from mixed numbers to improper fractions and back again is one of the most important things to learn. Pay close attention to this video to become a fractions champ!

Have you ever compared improper fractions to each other? No?? What?! Well, let's show you how!

Have you ever wondered how to compare two mixed numbers with different denominators? Probably not! But I bet you want to learn now that I've mentioned it. Shhhhh... It's a secret!

To compare mixed numbers with improper fractions, you're going to need to put on your thinking cap and think hard. This video will show you the steps you need to think through to compare these numbers

Improper fractions are so out of line! Let's convert them all to mixed numbers.

Students will learn what mixed numbers are and how they relate to improper fractions.

Learn how you can magically change a mixed number into an improper fraction.

Let's round up mixed numbers and mulch them into improper fractions!

Get the answer to that burning math question you've been wondering about -- what are mixed numbers?

Math Antics (who made this video) suggest watching it to learn how to add fractions *after* you learn to multiply them. So what this video after you watch the multiplying fractions video.

Does adding fractions sound like scary math to you? It sounds scary, but it's really not. Adding fractions with common denominators is pretty easy. Check it out!

! Need help with how to add fractions with like denominators? You're in the right place!

So adding fractions with common denominators makes a lot of sense but what happens when you have different denominators. Well, you have to shake things up first...

Okay, you know how to add fractions now... but what do you do if your teacher asks you to add mixed numbers? Run! No!!! Watch this video instead and impress your teacher with your savvy adding skills

Learning to add mixed numbers requires concentration. So focus like Harry Potter did when he was learning to use his wand.

Songs are good for coding math into the more creative parts of our brains. Listen to this song about mixed numbers.

Learn change two fractions with different denominators into two fractions with the same denominator. It's easier than defeating a dementor at Hogwarts! See it here!

Educational video for children to learn how to add fractions with the same denominator.

Math Antics (the people who made this video) think that the best way to learn about adding fractions is to learn about multiplying them first. So watch this video before you start adding fractions.

Did you learn how to add fractions earlier this year but now when you see them you can't remember a thing? Here's a quick review to remind you of what you forgot!

Want to learn to do really tremendously hard addition with fractions? You'll be a math rock star if you can do it! First make a plan... ALWAYS have a great plan, especially when it comes to fractions!

Subtracting fractions with common denominators is actually pretty easy once you see how it's done. You just need to remember a few steps.

Subtracting mix numbers sounds as hard as taking potions class with Professor Snape. Well, at least you won't blow up! Learn the secrets of mixed numbers here!

In this engaging session, we demystify decimals, exploring their significance and practical applications in the real world.

In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore various ways to represent decimal place value using models. From breaking down wholes into tenths to understanding hundredths and beyond

Students will get a good explanation about using decimals to represent the values between whole amounts.

Learn all about decimal place value as we journey to the right side of that all important point which separates digits that represent whole numbers from digits that represent decimal numbers

This video explores representing decimals for tenths and hundredths place using number lines as a visual model

This video demonstrates a fantastic game to learn decimal place values! This game can easily be adapted to suit the needs of a large variety of students

Need help with determining the value of an underlined digit? You're in the right place!

Need help with decimal place value? You're in the right place!

Learn how to read a decimal in words. Decimals have fractional parts and can be used to measure small objects.

We can begin by reviewing the concept of ones, tens, and hundreds places, and then demonstrates how tenths, hundredths, and thousandths places work. By understanding place value, we can interpret the meaning of each digit in a decimal number.

Learn how to find decimals with hundredths on a number line.

A good rap song that reinforces the most important part of adding and substracting decimals.

The aim of this guide is to show how to add decimals with a different number of decimal places. We will focus on the formal written method.

Adding decimals using the column method is exactly the same as adding whole numbers. You just have to make sure that the decimal points line up.

In this video, students will learn how to add and subtract numbers with decimals.

A great example of adding decimals with regrouping. Note after the 5 minute mark, the examples given use thousandths.

Let's learn how to subtract decimals that have a different number of decimal places.

Today, you'll learn how to add different amounts of money together using the regrouping technique.

In this video, you'll learn about how to add different amounts of money together without regrouping

Let's learn how to subtract one amount of money from another without regrouping. This is really useful when you're paying for something at a store.

Today, we'll learn how to subtract money from the money we have with regrouping.

Here you will find a range of Fifth Grade Column Addition Worksheets involving decimal numbers, which will help your students to learn to add a range of decimals with up to 3 decimal places together.

On this page, teachers will find FREE Decimal worksheets on a variety of topics including comparing and sorting decimals, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing decimals, and converting decimals to other number formats.
