Why this why now
Pupils extend their understanding of multiplying fractions by whole numbers to multiplying improper fractions and mixed numbers both within and bridging a whole. This will be developed further when they find unit and non-unit fractions of whole numbers by exploring parts and wholes.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Identify equal parts of a whole
- Name common fractions (1/2, 1/3, 1/4)
- Use visual models for fractions
