Objective: Solve fraction word problems with line plots.
Lesson 28 concludes the topic with word problems requiring the interpretation of data presented in line plots. Students create line plots to display a given data set that includes fraction and mixed number values. To do this, they apply their skill in comparing mixed numbers, both through reasoning and the use of common numerators or denominators. For example, a data set might contain both 1 5/9 and 14/9 , giving students the opportunity to determine that they must be plotted at the same point. They also use addition and subtraction to solve the problems.
