    Keith and his sister were assigned the task of cleaning up after a party. Keith took all of the leftover tuna sandwiches and his sister took all of the left over ham sandwiches.
    ::Keith和他的妹妹在聚会后被指派清理工作,基思拿走了所有剩下的金枪鱼三明治,他姐姐把剩下的所有三明治都拿走了火腿三明治。

    Keith has  15 2  of tuna sandwiches.
    ::Keith有15 2个金枪鱼三明治。

    His sister has  6 3 4  of ham sandwiches. Who has more sandwiches?
    ::他姐姐有6 3 4个火腿三明治 谁还有三明治?

    In this concept, you will learn how to compare and  order   improper fractions  and mixed numbers.
    ::在这个概念中,你将学会如何比较和排序不适当的分数和混合数字。

    Comparing Improper Fractions and Mixed Numbers
    ::比较不适当分数和混合数字

    An  improper fraction  is a fraction where the  numerator  is larger than the  denominator .
    ::当分子大于分母时,不适当的分数是一个分数。

    mixed number  is composed of a whole number and a fraction.
    ::混合数由整数和小数组成。

    To compare a mixed number and an improper fraction, first make sure that they are in the same form. Convert the improper fraction to a mixed number or the mixed number to an improper fraction, then compare.
    ::要比较混合数字和不适当分数,首先要确保它们以相同形式出现。 将不当分数转换成混合数字或混合数字,然后进行比较。

    6 1 2   _   15 4

    Convert  15 4  into a mixed number.  Divide  15 by 4 and write the  quotient  as a whole number and a fraction.
    ::将 15 4 转换为混合数。 除以 15 乘 4 , 将商数作为整数和小数来写 。

    15 4 = 3 3 4

    Compare the numbers.
    ::比较数字。

    6 1 2 > 3 3 4

    6 1 2  is greater than  15 4 .
    ::6 1 2 大于 15 4 。

    If the whole number is the same, compare the fractions. You may have to convert the fractions using the  lowest common denominator .
    ::如果整数相同, 请比较分数。 您可能需要使用最小的公分母转换分数 。

    You can order improper fractions and mixed numbers in the same way. Convert them all to the same form and then write them in order.
    ::您可以以同样的方式订购不适当的分数和混合数字。 把它们都转换成相同的格式, 然后按顺序写 。

    Order these fractions from least to greatest.
    ::将这些分数从最小排序到最大排序 。

    4 1 2 , 10 6 , 4 3 , 7 1 9

    First, change the fractions so that they are all in the same form. Let’s change them all to mixed numbers.  Simplify  if you can.
    ::首先,改变分数,使它们都以同样的形式出现。 让我们把它们都换成混合数字。 如果可以,请简化。

    10 6 = 5 3 = 1 2 3

    4 3 = 1 1 3

    Now you can write them in order from least to greatest.
    ::现在你可以写成从最少到最伟大的。

    4 3 , 10 6 , 4 1 2 , 7 1 9

    Examples
    ::实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Earlier, you were given a problem about Keith and the sandwiches.
    ::早些时候,你被问及基思和三明治的问题

    Keith has  15 2  tuna sandwiches and his sister has  6 3 4  ham sandwiches. Compare the fractions to see who has more sandwiches.
    ::Keith有15 2个金枪鱼三明治,他妹妹有6 3 4个火腿三明治。比较一下,看看谁有更多的三明治。

    First, convert the improper fraction to a mixed number.
    ::首先,把不当的分数转换成混合数。

    15 2 = 7 1 2

    Then, compare the two quantities.
    ::然后,比较这两个数量。

    7 1 2 > 6 3 4

    Keith has more sandwiches.
    ::基斯有更多的三明治。

    For the following examples, compare the fractions.
    ::以下示例比较分数。

    Example 2
    ::例2

    29 3   _   7 1 3

    First, convert the improper fraction to a mixed number.
    ::首先,把不当的分数转换成混合数。

    29 3 = 9 2 3

    Compare the numbers.
    ::比较数字。

    9 2 3 > 7 1 3

    29 3  is greater than  7 1 3 .
    ::29 3大于7 1 3。

    Example 3
    ::例3

    4 1 2   _   12 5

    First, change the improper fraction to a mixed number
    ::首先,将不当分数改变为混合数

    12 5 = 2 2 5

    Then, compare the numbers.
    ::然后,比较数字。

    4 1 2 > 2 2 5

    4 1 2  is greater than  12 5 .
    ::4 1 2 大于 12 5 。

    Example 4
    ::例4

    16 3   _   22 5

    Both fractions are improper. Let’s try comparing the fractions using the lowest common denominator of 3 and 5. The  LCD  is 15.
    ::这两种分数都是不恰当的。 让我们尝试用3和5的最低公分母来比较分数。 液晶分数是15。

    First, find the equivalent fraction for each with the denominator of 15.
    ::首先,找到每个分母的等同分数,分母为15。

    16 3 = 80 15

    22 5 = 66 15

    Then, compare the fractions.
    ::然后,比较分数。

    80 15 > 66 15

    16 3  is greater than  22 5 .
    ::16 3大于22 5。

    Example 5
    ::例5

    17 4   _ 4   1 4

    First, convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction. Multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator. Write it as a fraction over 4.
    ::首先, 将混合分数转换为不适当的分数。 将整数乘以分母, 并添加分子。 将其写成分数 4 以上 4 。

    4 × 4 + 1 = 17

    4 1 4 = 17 4

    Then, compare the fractions.
    ::然后,比较分数。

    17 4 = 17 4

    17 4  is equal to  4 1 4 .
    ::17 4等于4 1 4。
