An easy, straightforward, and fun guide for learning fractions and its counterparts.
Fractions For Dummies is the perfect strategy guide for both understanding and using one of math's most common (and most challenging) topic areas. You'll explore current solving strategies for fraction-related problems, and you'll also discover how to solve problems involving fractions' closely related cousins, decimals and percentages. Dive deep into the basics of these topics before moving on to more advanced uses, such as word problems, with the help of author and experienced math teacher Mark Zegarelli.
As a math teacher and tutor, I hear a lot about how many students find working with fractions difficult. So, I’m really glad that in this book, Fractions For Dummies, I have an opportunity to focus solely on fractions, fractions, and more fractions — not to mention the closely related topics of decimals and percentages.
I’ve done my best to take a really slow and steady approach to fractions. Part 1 of this book is entirely devoted to an overview of fractions, followed by a foundation of basic math skills to support you.
In Part 2, you can find five full chapters devoted solely to the most important core of fractions skills. Simplifying fractions, finding a common denominator, converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers, as well as adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions — it’s all there!
After that, Parts 3 and 4 cover decimals and percentages. And at the end, just for fun, Part 5 gives you two top-ten lists about fractions that you may find useful.
This straightforward and intuitive book also includes:
• Techniques for working with mixed numbers (numbers that include whole amounts and fractions) and more
• Ways to add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions with whole numbers and with each other
• Strategies for helping and supporting the young student in your life who's struggling with fractions, decimals, and/or percentages
It's time you showed these math areas who's boss. Fractions For Dummies shows you just how easy fractions and the like can be!
