Introductory Message
CO_Q1_Mathematics_ Module 15
Welcome to Mathematics Grade 5!

 The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts of the Schools
Division of Bago City and DepEd Regional Office VI - Western Visayas through the
Curriculum and Learning Management Division (CLMD). This is developed to guide the
learning facilitators (teachers, parents and responsible adults) in helping the learners meet
the standards set by the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum.

The Learning Activity Sheet is a self-directed instructional material aimed to guide

the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and time using the contextualized
resources in the community. This will also assist the learners in acquiring the lifelong
learning skills, knowledge and attitudes for productivity and employment.

For learning facilitator:

The Mathematics Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the teaching-learning
activities specified in each Most Essential Learning Competency (MELC) with minimal or no
face-to-face encounter between you and learner. This will be made available to the learners
with the references/links to ease the independent learning.

For the learner:

The Mathematics Activity Sheet is developed to help you continue learning even if
you are not in school. This learning material provides you with meaningful and engaging
activities for independent learning. Being an active learner, carefully read and understand
the instructions, then, perform the activities and answer the assessments. This will be
returned to your facilitator on the agreed schedule.

VISUALIZING DIVISION OF FRACTIONS.

I. Learning Competency with Code

Visualizing division of fractions. (M5NS-Ii-95)

II. Background Information for Learners

In the previous lesson, you learned about showing that multiplying a
fraction by its reciprocal is equal to 1.
This Learning Activity Sheet for the week deals with visualizing division of
fractions. We can use paper folding, drawing and the like.

Example 1:

3 1
Nica’s family has a big orchard. Nica’s father waters
hectare of the orchard in
4 3
hour using a hose. How many hectares could he water in 1 hour using the same
hose?

Solution:
 Let us use this piece of cartolina to visualize the mango orchard of Nica’s family.
3
 If this whole cartolina represents 1 hectare, how will you represent the hectare
4
piece of land?
3
 Let us represent the hectare of land using this colored paper.
