Problem solving 3 Fractions p.24~p.25

1 Let represent the number in the colored part. Example 4 3 , 5 , 6 , 7
9 15 18 21
Then, the sum of the five numbers in the 16
48
colored parts can be represented as ( 7) 15

( 6) ( 6) ( 7). Since the sum of

the five numbers is 170, 5 170 and 5 10 15 20 25
1 2345
34. The number in the center is 34; therefore, Try It Again

the greatest number is 34 7 41. 30 35 40 45 50
6 7 8 9 10
2 The sum of the six numbers is equal to the sum
Among the fractions above, there are
of the numbers in the center times 3. Therefore, 4 fractions that are equivalent to 5.
it should be a multiple of 3. and are not

multiples of 3.

Example 5 greater

21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 Therefore, 5 is the greater fraction

41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50
51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 because it has a smaller denominator.
61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70
71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 The difference between the denominator

91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 and numerator in 5 and 9 is 1.
6 10

Therefore, 9 is the greater fraction
10

because it has a greater denominator and

numerator.

2 The page numbers are consecutive numbers, so, Since 9 is the greatest fraction and 5 is
10 8
the sum of the 13 consecutive numbers is 338.
The middle page number is 33,813 26; the smallest fraction, the order of the three

therefore, Kate started reading from page 20. fractions from smallest to greatest is

3 The 4 numbers in the 30th square can be 5 5 9 .
8 6 10
represented as below.

30

30 61

Since the sum of the 4 numbers is (

30) ( 30) ( 61) 4 121 and is

equal to 30 30 900 in the 30th square, the

sum of the 4 numbers is 900 4 121 3721.
