What Are We Learning in Math?





Here are 16 crayons.  One-fourth of the crayons are in the pencil cup.  How many are flat on the table? 
(Answer:  3/4 or 12.)
1/4 of 16 = 4
3/4 of 16=12

    Wow, it really is amazing about how you can simplify fractions! I wonder if you can have even bigger numbers that you simplify!
