  1. California Standards Prep forNS2.1 Solve problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of positive fractions and explain why a particular operation was used for a given situation.

  2. 0 1 3 10 1 2 1 2 3 10 is closer to than to 0. Sometimes, when solving problems, you may not need an exact answer. To estimate sums and differences of fractions and mixed numbers, round each fraction to 0, , or 1. You can use a number line to help. 1 2

  3. You can also round fractions by comparing its numerators with its denominators.

Estimate how much longer the blue whale is than the great white shark. Round each mixed number. Subtract. The blue whale is about 29 m longer than the great white shark.

  6. 1 12 1 8 2 Example 2: Estimating Sums and Differences Estimate the difference. 1 12 1 8 – C. 2 Round each number. 0 2 2 – 0 = 2 Subtract.

  7. You can estimate products and quotients of mixed numbers by rounding to the nearest whole number. If the fraction in a mixed number is greater than or equal to , round the mixed number up to the next whole number. If the fraction is less than , round down to a whole number by dropping the fraction. 1 2 1 2
