AC9M6N03
apply knowledge of equivalence to compare, order and represent common fractions including halves, thirds and quarters on the same number line and justify their order
Elaborations
- AC9M6N03_E1applying factors and multiples to fraction denominators, such as halves with quarters, eighths and twelfths, and thirds with sixths, ninths and twelfths to determine equivalent representations of fractions in order to make comparisons
- AC9M6N03_E2representing fractions on the same number line, paying attention to relative position, and using this to explain relationships between denominators
- AC9M6N03_E3explaining equivalence and order between fractions using number lines, drawings and models
- AC9M6N03_E4comparing and ordering fractions by placing cards on a string line across the room and referring to benchmark fractions to justify their position; for example, 5/8 is greater than 1/2 can be written as 5/8>1/2, because half of 8 is 4; 1/6 is less than 1/4, because 6 > 4 and can be written 1/6 < 1/4
