Introductionm72c183f8f1eafc5f_1528450127855_0Introduction

Students give examples of common fractions and applying them in real situations (fractions as parts of a whole or as a quotientquotientquotient of two numbers).

They write down given fractions without the fraction bar and identify the meaning of the numerator (the dividenddividenddividend), the denominator (the divisordivisordivisor) and the fraction bar (the sign of division).

The teacher introduces the subject of the lesson – identifying the ratio of two valuesratio of two valuesratio of two values and writing it in the form of the fraction.

Procedurem72c183f8f1eafc5f_1528446435040_0Procedure

Discussion – how to identify ratio of lengths of line segments?

Wandering posterswandering postersWandering posters.

The teacher divides the class into 4 teams. Each team gets a stick. The first group gets a stick that is one unit of length, the second group gets a stick equivalent to 2 units of length, the third group – 3 units of length and the fourth group – six units of length.

The first group gets a piece of paper with the AB line segment whose length is 24 (applying the ‘stick’ units) and the CD line segment whose length is 6. Actual lengths of line segments and lengths of sticks are unknown to students.

Each groups’ task is to measure line segments AB and CD with their own stick and write in the form of a quotientquotientquotient how many times the line segment AB (as well as CD) is longer than their stick.

Based on this numbers, they should also write down how many times the line segment AB is longer than the line segment CD, also in the form of the quotient.

Each group writes down the answer and passes the piece of paper to the next group for them to fill it in. There are as many rounds as groups. After having finished the exercise, students hang the poster on the wall and together analyse results and draw conclusions.

Task
Students work individually, using computers. Their task is to observe the way of determining the ratio of line segments and to draw conclusions about the ratio of two values.

Definition

- The ratio of two values is the quotient of these values. We write it down in the form of a quotient of natural numbers, using the division sign or as a common fraction.m72c183f8f1eafc5f_1527752263647_0- The ratio of two values is the quotient of these values.

Students use obtained information in exercises.

Task
There are two line segments a and b of given values. Calculate the ratio of the length of the line segment a to the line segment b. Write the result as a quotientquotientquotient and as a common fraction.

a) a = 3 dm and b = 12 cm.

b) a = 27 mm and b = 9 cm.

Task
Present the ratio of given numbers as a quotient of natural numbers, without using the sign of division and in the form of a common fraction.

a) 112:6

b) 3:314

c) 21312

Task
The ratio of two numbers is 3:1, and their difference is 16. Find those numbers.m72c183f8f1eafc5f_1527752256679_0The ratio of two numbers is 3:1, and their difference is 16. Find those numbers.

Task

An extra task:

An alloy of silver and copper weighs  68 g.

How many grams of copper is in this alloy, if the ratio of the mass of copper to the mass of silver is equal to 4 : 13?

Lesson summarym72c183f8f1eafc5f_1528450119332_0Lesson summary

Students do the revision exercises.

Then together they sum‑up the classes, by formulating the conclusions to memorise.
