III. Procedure
A. Preparatory Activities
1. Energizer
Before we start let us all sing “Math dali song”
2. Drill
Class, I have here some flashcards, all you need to do is to say the product of
each of the following. Is that clear?
1. 5x5
2. 8x6
3. 4x9
4. 6x7
5. 3x8
3. Review
Before we proceed to our next lesson, let’s have a short review on our past
lesson.
1. What is the difference between similar fractions and dissimilar fractions?
Answer: Similar fractions are fractions that have the same denominators.
Example: 1/5, 2/5, 3/5
To make sure that you have understood the lesson, I prepared a short
activity for you, all you need to do is to identify the Similar Fractions,
Dissimilar Fractions, and Mixed Number Fractions.
4. Motivation
Before we start our new lesson, please help me to answer these jumbled
words?
1. AFRCOINT
2. ONITDADI
3. MUNAREROT
4. REMBNU
5. ONEMDANIOTR
Example 1:
Adding simple fractions without regrouping:
Step 2: Divide the LCD by the given denominators and multiply by the given numerators.
12 ÷ 3 x 2 = 8
12 ÷ 4 x 1 = 3
Example 2:
Step 1: Change fractions to similar fractions through getting the LCD of 4 and 3.
Step 2: Divide the LCD by the given denominators and multiply by the given numerators.
12 ÷ 4 x 3 = 9
12 ÷ 3 x 1 = 4
Example: 1
12⟌13 = 1 1/12
- 12
1
Step 1: change fractions to similar fractions through getting the LCD of 5 and 4.
Example:
1
20 ⟌ 23 = 1 3/20
- 20
3
Marie sold 3 1/4 kilograms of avocados, while Ann sold 2/3 kilogram. How many
kilograms of Avocados did the two sell together?
Questions:
3 ¼ + 2/3 = N
Step 1: change fractions to similar fractions through getting the LCD of 4 and 3.
3 1/4 + 2/3 = 3 __/12 + __ /12 = N
Step 2: Divide the LCD by the given denominators and multiply by the given
numerators.
12 ÷ 4 x 1 = 3
12 ÷ 3 x 2 = 8
D. Generalization:
Step 1: Change fractions to similar fractions through getting the Least Common
Denominator or LCD
Step 2: Divide the LCD by the given denominators and multiply by the given
numerators.
Step 3: If adding mixed numbers, add first the whole numbers before adding the
numerators. Copy the common denominator. Then, reduce to lowest term or if
the answer is and improper fraction, changes it to mixed numbers. Regroup the
sum if necessary.
E. APPLICATION
Now class, I will group you into four. Each group will have this envelope, and
inside that, you will answer the fractions using addition and identify if what kind
of fraction it is, one or two members of your group will present your answer. Do
you understand?
Group 1:
5 1/4 + 2 3/4
Group 2:
3 2/5 + 4 5/10
Group 3:
2/12 + 10/12
Group 4:
5/15 + 8/13
IV. Evaluation
1. 1/4 + 2/4 =
2. 3/8 + 1/8 =
3. 2/10 + 2/5 =
4. 2 12/20 + 8/20 =
5. 3/4 + 1/3 =
V. Assignment
Find the missing number to complete the solution and answer of the following
numbers.
