Make the yellow. MAKE THE YELLOW!
Make sure you tally for your color. Keep track of the points AND misses.

The red! The RED!
Blue has a point. Mark it down. Yellow has a miss. Mark it down.
BLUE!

So… 5 red points scored. Two
misses. What fraction would we use to represent
this?

So what’s the lowest common
denominator of 6 and 7?
42.
Really? And how did you determine
that?
Adding Fractions with unlike denominators
5th Grade
42/30 simplifies to 1 and 2/5.

Adding Fractions with unlike denominators
5th Grade
Wii Fit Plus (5.NF.1)Let’s Look at the Math:
5.NF.1. Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators. For example, 2/3 + 5/4 = 8/12 + 15/12 = 23/12. (In general, a/b + c/d = (ad + bc)/bd.)
