The next few weeks we are going to be looking at fractions and ratios and rational expressions (for the older students). There are only 10 rules for everything that you can do with a fraction (see the download page to get a poster on these 10 rules). Today, Hexa and Icosa start by discussing what is a fraction and what do the tops and bottoms of a fraction tell us. Please click on the file below to see their discussion.
