This document outlines how to teach fractions, including defining what fractions are, the different types (proper, improper, mixed), and how to perform calculations with fractions such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It recommends using hands-on materials like fraction kits to help students understand fractions and provides examples of fraction problems and solutions. Real-life applications of fractions are also discussed.

the denominator are called improper fraction.
• (Numerator = denominator or, Numerator > denominator)
• Example:

called a mixed fraction.
• Example
•
OR
