Chapter 7 Study Guide

Hey guys. Here's a quick rundown of what will be on your Chapter 7 Assessment this Thursday:

Multiplying Fractions & Mixed Numbers:

Remember to first change any mixed numbers to improper fractions. Then, multiply the numerators straight across and the denominators straight across. Finally, simplify, either by "dividing down" or by using the GCF. Here's a graphic from WikiHow to demonstrate:



Dividing Fractions & Mixed Numbers:

Again, remember to first change any mixed numbers into improper fractions before you proceed. Then, multiply by the reciprocal of the second number (do not change the first number into its reciprocal, only the second). You can either simplify before you multiply or you can simplify after. Here's a graphic from WikiHow:



Finally, we covered patterns & sequences today. Remember to look for the pattern and to test it out before coming to a conclusion about finding the next number.

Happy studying!
