Applying an algorithm to divide whole numbers fluently is coming along for me I am a 3.0 in that leaning target. My goal is to be at a 4.0 by the end of the school year. I am at a 3.0 becouse my understanding in this leanng target is not confeident but is a average understanding. I am still working on my understanding of Applying an algorithm to divide whole numbers fluently.

It took me awile to understand but then I asked mrs.D then its so easy.

Playing Deal or No Deal in class gave me great opportunities to use some math skills such as division, multiplication, fractions, LCD, probability, simplifying, addition, percentages, and long division. I could use all of these but I'll just pick a few from all nine. I'll pick the ones I used the most. Fractions and percentage. In round one as a player I had a one out of twenty chance of winning at least $ 200,000. It asked me to make it look like a fraction so I did and I came up with 1/20 then it told me to use 100 with a new denominator then I found out that 5 multiply 20 equals 100 so I multiplied two and 1then I came up with 5/100. Then it asked me to find out the LCD for the two denominators in #2 and #3.Then It asked me to turn the fraction to #3 to a percentage and I came up with 5%.
