Fraction Rings

Use the fraction pieces and  all 3 rings to fill in the page. Put each piece in each ring and record in how many minutes, the decimal and the degrees each fraction equals:

¼  = _____ minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

½  = _____ minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

1/3 = _____minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

1/6 = _____minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

1/8 = _____minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

2/3 = _____minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

Now you make up 6 more:

____  = _____ minutes = o._____ = ______˚

____  = _____ minutes = 0._____ = ______˚

____  = _____minutes = 0._____ = ______˚

____  = _____minutes = 0._____ = ______˚

____  = _____minutes = 0._____ = ______˚

____  = _____minutes = 0._____ = ______˚

Now lets add fractions:

½ +2/6 = _____ minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

½ + 1/3 = _____ minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

¼ + 1/3 = _____minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

2/8 + ¼ + ½ = _____ minutes = 0._____ = _____˚

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/6 = ______minutes = 0.______ = ______˚

Now you make 5 more:

_____ + _____ + ______ = ______minutes = 0._____ = ____˚

_____ + _____ + ______ = ______minutes = 0.––––– = ––––˚

_____ + _____ + ______ = ______minutes = 0.––––– = ––––˚

_____ + _____ + ______ = ______minutes = 0.––––– = ––––˚

_____ + _____ + ______ = ______minutes = 0.––––– = ––––˚
