Describe fractions and perform operations with fractions to solve relevant, mathematical problems using part-whole strategies and visual models.

5.NR.3.1Explain the meaning of a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator (a/b = a ÷ b). Solve problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of fractions or mixed numbers.5.NR.3.2Compare and order up to three fractions with different numerators and/or different denominators by flexibly using a variety of tools and strategies.5.NR.3.3Model and solve problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions and mixed numbers with unlike denominators.5.NR.3.4Model and solve problems involving multiplication of a fraction and a whole number.5.NR.3.5Explain why multiplying a whole number by a fraction greater than one results in a product greater than the whole number, and why multiplying a whole number by a fraction less than one results in a product less than the whole number and multiplying a whole number by a fraction equal to one results in a product equal to the whole number.5.NR.3.6Model and solve problems involving division of a unit fraction by a whole number and a whole number by a unit fraction.
