Example Question #3 : Interpret Multiplication As Scaling: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Nf.B.5

Fill in the blank with the correct sign.

__________ $\small 5\times\frac{3}{4}$

Possible Answers:

$\small =$

Correct answer:

Explanation:

__________ $\small 5\times\frac{3}{4}$

When we multiply a fraction by a whole number, we first want to make the whole number into a fraction. We do that by putting the whole number over $\small 1.$ Then we multiply like normal.

$\small \frac{5}{1}\times\frac{3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}$

$\small \frac{15}{4}=3\frac{2}{4}$ Because $\small 4$ can go into $\small 15$ only $\small 3$ times and $\small \frac{2}{4}$ is left over

$\small 5>3\frac{2}{4}$

$\small 8$ __________ $\small 8\times\frac{1}3{}$

When we multiply a fraction by a whole number, we first want to make the whole number into a fraction. We do that by putting the whole number over $\small 1.$ Then we multiply like normal.

$\small \frac{8}{1}\times\frac{1}{3}=\frac{8}{3}$

$\small \frac{8}{3}=2\frac{2}3{}$ Because $\small 3$ can go into $\small 8$ only $\small 2$ times and $\small \frac{2}{3}$ is left over

$\small 8>2\frac{2}3{}$

$\small \frac{12}{1}\times\frac{3}{4}=\frac{36}{4}$

$\small \frac{36}{4}=9$ Because can go into an even times

$\small 9<12$

Explanation:

$\small 3$ __________ $\small \small 3\times\frac{3}{5}$

When we multiply a fraction by a whole number, we first want to make the whole number into a fraction. We do that by putting the whole number over Then we multiply like normal.

$\small \frac{3}{1}\times\frac{3}{5}=\frac{9}{5}$

$\small \frac{9}{5}=1\frac{4}{5}$ Because can go into $\small 9$ only time, and $\small \small \frac{4}{5}$ is left over.

$\small 3$ __________ $\small 1\frac{4}{9}$

$\small 3>1\frac{4}{9}$
