Welcome to Mathnasium’s Math Tricks series. Today we are using number sense to divide statements where the divisors (the numbers we are dividing by) have more than two factors (numbers which divide evenly into the divisor). Rather than dividing a dividend (the number to be divided) by a challenging divisor, the trick is to break it down into smaller, more manageable parts, and then divide by each part.
Our expert team of math educators and enthusiasts has spent over 40 years developing and refining the most powerful teaching methods and materials into the comprehensive, industry-leading Mathnasium Method™. These “Ask Education” features are a way for the Education team members to share their knowledge and love of math with our curious readers and fans.
Welcome to Mathnasium’s Math Tricks series. Today we are comparing fractions to the benchmark number, one half.
When comparing fractions, it can be difficult to determine whether they represent values that are greater than or less than one another. It might be helpful to identify whether they are greater than or less than one half.
