While working on fractions, a student of class V, does the question as follows:\(\dfrac{2}{3} - \dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{0}\)As a teacher, which one of the following strategies would be most appropriate to follow?1. explain the error by using a fraction kit or paper folding2. ask the student to do the same question 10 times so that he/she will not repeat the mistake3. tell the algorithm for subtraction of fractions4. give more questions for practice |

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : explain the error by using a fraction kit or paper folding The numbers that are found to have been constructed to measure different parts of a complete object are known as fractional numbers (or fractions). Like fractions: Fractions with equal denominators are known as like fractions. The question that is mentioned above-showing error in subtraction of like fractions i.e., \(\dfrac{2}{3} - \dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{0}\) Note that:
Hence, it can be concluded that as a teacher, one of the strategies that would be most appropriate to follow is to explain the error by using a fraction kit or paper folding. |
