Check understanding
- Calculate 3/5 + 4/5 = 7/5 and explain it equals 1 2/5
- Subtract 2/6 from 5/6
- Solve addition problems where the sum exceeds the whole: 7/8 + 3/8
“If a recipe uses 5/8 of a bag of flour and then another 6/8, can your child work out the total and explain what the answer means as a mixed number?”
