Why bother?
Tell your neighbor why you should reduce a fraction.

Practice
• Find a common denominator by raising the denominator:
• Reduce to lowest terms:

2 methods to compare fractions
1. Reduce/raise to a common denominator:
2. Cross multiply10 * 10 = 100 8 * 15 = 120

With a new partner….
1. Put the fractions in order from least to greatest.
2. When you are done, compare your fractions to the table next to you.
