Let us look at an example of finding a 5/6 of 24.  \nHere are the fraction strips for a whole and five-sixths.  \nThe shaded amount is 5/6 of a whole.  \n1 WHOLE  \n\n| 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n\nIf we now replace the whole with 24 ‘wholes’ we need to split 24 into sixths and work out what number goes in each part of the strip of sixths.  \nThis is exactly the same as sharing out 24 into 6 equal groups or dividing 24 by 6.  \nSo we have: 1/6 of 24 = (24 ÷ 6) = 4  \n\n| 24 |  |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 | 1\u003Cbr>6 |\n| 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |\n\nOnce we have found out 1/6 of 24, our next step is to find five-sixths of 24.  \nAll we need to do is add together five of the sixths or the number of 4s that have been shaded. We finally end up with:  \n5/6 of 24 = 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 20 OR 5/6 of 24 = (24 ÷ 6) x 5 = 20","cbCaih1i61OibRTd","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaih1i61OibRTd","pdf",165341,"English","# How to Find a Fraction of a Number\n## Methodology for Calculating Fractions\n## Visualizing Fractions with Strips\n## Example: Calculating 5/6 of 24","[{\"question\":\"What are the two steps to find a fraction of a number?\",\"answer\":\"The two steps are to first divide the number by the denominator (b) and then multiply the result by the numerator (a).\"},{\"question\":\"Why use fraction strips when calculating fractions?\",\"answer\":\"Fraction strips provide a visual representation that helps students understand the concept of splitting a whole into equal groups, making the division and addition process clearer.\"},{\"question\":\"How do you calculate 5/6 of 24 using the method described?\",\"answer\":\"To find 5/6 of 24, you divide 24 by 6 to get 4, and then multiply that result by 5 to reach 20.\"}]","How to Find a Fraction of a Number - Educational Guide | PDF",1792675134]
