About the Professional Development Modeling Multiplication of a Fraction by a Whole Number Fraction models help students to visualize operations with fractions. Students model same-size groups of fractional parts to show multiplication of a fraction by a whole number. For example, is groups of of a whole. Students draw fraction circles divided into equal parts and shade equal parts of each whole to represent. Then, they count the number of fourths shaded and write the number over to get. So, =. of a whole groups of Using models helps students visualize the concepts first, and then they are able to transfer this understanding to numbers and symbols. Students gradually become able to describe how to multiply a fraction by a whole number without using a model or repeated addition: Multiply the whole number by the numerator of the fraction and use the same denominator.

Materials Spinners (see eteacher Resources) Add Multi-Digit Whole Numbers Ask students to write the numbers in a -section spinner. Have students spin the spinner and use the digits to make multidigit addends. After students form the two addends, they can find the sum. Students can check their sums with a partner. Have students start with -digit plus -digit problems, and then try -digit plus -digit and -digit plus -digit problems. ENGAGE with the Interactive Student Edition Essential Question How can you use a model to multiply a fraction by a whole number? Making Connections Ask students to tell what they know about drawing fraction models. Draw a model that can be used to represent fifths. Check students models. Suppose you spend of an hour walking your dog every day. Shade the model to show this fraction of an hour. Check models. Learning Activity What is the problem the students are trying to solve? Connect the story to the problem. Ask the following questions. How many equal parts of a model do you shade to show a fraction? Possible answer: The same number as the numerator of the fraction. What does a fraction model with all of its parts shaded represent? Possible answer: whole or unit Do you think it would ever make sense to shade zero parts of a fraction model? Explain. Possible explanation: Yes, if you want to model 0. Literacy and ematics View the lesson opener with the students. Then have the class participate in the following activity. Have students give examples of situations in which they spend part of an hour doing something such as the part of an hour they spend in math class every day. Have them describe how they would show the part of an hour using a fraction model. Discuss whether there is more than one way to model the fraction.

What if Rafael practiced for hour each day? How would the model change? How much time will he practice in days? Possible answer: each circle would be divided into equal parts. Four of the equal parts would be shaded in each circle to represent hour. In the groups, there would be 2 fifths shaded.

0 Example 2 Use a pattern to multiply. You know how to use a model and repeated addition to multiply a fraction by a whole number. Look for a pattern in the table to discover another way to multiply a fraction by a whole number. Multiplication Problem 2 2 2 2 Whole Number (Number of Groups) When you multiply a fraction by a whole number, the numerator in the product is the product of the whole number and the numerator of the fraction. The denominator in the product is the same as the denominator of the fraction.. How do you multiply a fraction by a whole number without using a model or repeated addition? Fraction (Size of Groups) Product 2 2 of a whole 2 2 of a whole 2 of a whole Possible answer: multiply the whole number by the numerator of the fraction, and use the same denominator.. Describe two different ways to find the product 2. ; possible descriptions: one way: show third-size fraction strips. Shade 2 parts in each strip. Count the total number of shaded parts and write the sum over. Another way: multiply 2 by and write the product over the denominator,. Example 2 Students use a pattern in a table to multiply a fraction by a whole number. How many sixths do you have if you multiply 2? 2 groups of : 2 sixths, or 2 If you multiply 2 2? 2 groups of 2 : sixths, or If you multiply 2? 2 groups of : sixths, or What happens to the number of sixths each time you multiply the number of sixths by 2? Possible answer: there are twice as many sixths. Which number in the fraction tells you how many sixths there are? the numerator What happens to the numerator each time you multiply it by 2? The numerator is 2 times greater. Why does the denominator stay the same each time? Possible answer: the equal parts in the whole remain the same. What is 2? Explain how you know. ; possible explanation: I multiplied the numerator by 2 because the number of sixths is twice as many: 2 =. I kept the same denominator because it tells me the number of equal parts in a whole. So, the product is. MP Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. A student shaded fraction strips to model 2. Because 2 whole strips were shaded, the student said that the product 2 = 2 does not fit the pattern. What error did the student make in reasoning? Possible answer: 2 = 2, which can be rewritten as 2. The student did not think about 2 written as a fraction. Advanced Learners Materials Spinner (-section) (see eteacher Resources) ematical / Logical Individuals Students make a -section spinner and number it,, 0, and 2. Have students spin the spinner three times to create a multiplication problem using this template: Students should place the numbers so the fraction is less than. Have students find the product of the completed multiplication problem. They can continue making problems as time allows. COMMON ERRORS Error Students may incorrectly multiply the whole number by the denominator and write it over the numerator. Example = Springboard to Learning Remind students that the numerator tells the number of equal parts being considered and the denominator tells the total number of equal parts in a whole. Students should multiply the whole number by the numerator to find the total number of parts being considered. The denominator stays the same because the number of equal parts in a whole remains the same. Lesson. 0
