Numerator – The numerator is the number on the top of the fraction, and it shows the number of
the parts we are considering.
When the fractions are arranged from the smallest fraction to the largest fraction, those fractions
are said to be in an ascending order.
Ascending order of fractions is arranged fractions from smallest to largest fraction.
❖ Descending Order
When the fractions are arranged from the largest to the smallest fraction, those fractions are said
to be in descending order.
Descending order of fractions is arranged fractions from largest to smallest fraction.

Example 2:
Place the following fraction below in ascending order.
1 1 3 7
, , ,
2 3 4 8
Solution:
In the problem above indicates fraction with unlike denominators, hence we need to find a
common denominator. We need to convert our fractions to EQUIVALENT fractions of the same
DENOMINATOR.
Let’s solve
We will need to find the lowest common denominator
The table on the left indicates how to find the lowest
2 2 8 3 4 common denominator (LCM) of the fractions. Place all
2 1 4 3 2 the denominator 2,8,3 and 4 across then divide by the
2 1 2 3 1 prime numbers beginning from the smallest prime
3 1 1 3 1 number 2. Then used 2 until it is exhausted then move
on to the other prime number. Remember you will
1 1 1 1
need to divide until all number is one at the bottom.
LCM = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24
Now let’s arrange the fractions using 24 as common denominator
Here you will need to

COMPUTATION
Lesson 2
Topic: Computation
Rationale: This lesson will provide you with application of using
fraction calculations to find parts of quantities. We use fractions
Sub-topic/s: every day. A fraction is part of a whole object or part of a quantity.
So, when writing fractions, it is important that you use the same
❖ Fraction of a
Quantity units in the numerator and denominator.
Objectives: Using information sheet with the illustrated examples provided, you will be able to:
(1) Find fraction of given quantities
(2) Create a game using concept of finding fraction of quantities.
(3) Recognize the use of finding fractions of quantities based on relevant examples
provided.

SUMMARY
How to find fractions of quantities, you can do it two ways.
Method 1: Divide by numerator and then multiply your answer by numerator. Example.
Method 2. Write quantity as fraction with 1 as denominator. Cancel if possible and multiply
across. Example

Fraction- numerical quantity that is not a whole number (e.g. 1/2, 0.5).
Reduce- convert a fraction to lower form (the form with the lowest terms)
Numerator – The numerator is the number on the top of the fraction, and it shows the number of
the parts we are considering.
Denominator – The number on the bottom of the fraction and it shows the number of equal
parts, where the whole is divided into.
Proper Fraction- the top number less than its bottom number.
