2. Multiplication and Division with Fractions

Understanding and using fractions is a key component to success in high school math, science, and technical courses. Fractions are important to understanding ratios (such as slope), operations (such as enlarging or reducing), and measurements. Students need to master these math concepts before they can move on to courses such as chemistry, physics, trades, etc.  Without these key understandings, the complex math and equations used in higher-level courses will be frustratingly out of reach when variables take the place of numbers.
