Fraction Reminders!

Some of you are not simplifying (reducing) your answers when you add/subtract fractions. If you don't simplify the answers, it is counted wrong!

Some of you also do not change improper fractions to mixed numbers. If you leave it an improper fraction, it is counted wrong!

The SOL Test expects you to simplify and change all improper fractions to mixed numbers. If you need help with this, see me one morning or during Activity. I will be glad to help you one-on-one.
