W09 Math Exercises: Fractions

Overview

This is now our third week on fractions. We have dedicated this much time to arithmetic with fractions because it is a concept many people need extra practice and time to understand. If you are still unsure about how to do arithmetic with fractions by the end of this lesson, please seek tutoring on this and continue to practice with the exercise problems from Weeks 07–09. You should now be able to see why knowing your multiplication facts is so helpful with fractions. Please continue to memorize your multiplication facts if you don’t have them memorized yet.
