Fraction Feast

Step 1: Write an equivalent fraction for \( \frac{3}{4} \) in eighths:

\( \frac{3}{4} = \frac{\text{?}}{8} \)

Step 2: How many \( \frac{1}{8} \) scoops must Leo use?

Answer: ________ scoops

Step 3: Show your work or explain how you know:

A. Write as repeated addition or multiplication:

\( 3 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = \)

B. Express as an improper fraction & mixed number:

Improper: \( \frac{\text{?}}{\text{?}} \) Mixed: ______ \( \frac{\text{?}}{\text{?}} \)

Imagine you are training a new apprentice baker who asks: "Why do we need fractions in a real kitchen instead of just using whole numbers?" Write your expert advice:

Fraction Feast • Lesson 3 Culminating Task • Master Chef Academy Graduate

Level 2: Tart = \( \frac{3}{4} \); Loaf = \( \frac{2}{3} \); Tray = \( \frac{5}{6} \). Unshaded pan = \( \frac{2}{5} \).

Level 3 Cookie Box: Choc Chip = 4; Sugar = 6; Oatmeal = 2 cookies.

Waffle Share: Each child gets \( \frac{2}{3} \) waffle (divide each waffle into thirds, giving each child 2 pieces).

Exit Ticket: False; eighths are smaller than fourths because dividing into more parts yields smaller shares.

Level 1: 1A: 2 fourths (\( \frac{2}{4} \)); 1B: 4 sixths (\( \frac{4}{6} \)).

Level 2 Multiplier: \( \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{2}{2} = \frac{6}{8} \); \( \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{3}{3} = \frac{9}{12} \).

Missing values: \( \frac{1}{5} = \frac{2}{10} \) (Missing = 2); \( \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3} \) (Missing = 3).

Mia's Pizza: Yes, \( \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2} \).

Comparisons: \( \frac{3}{8} < \frac{5}{8} \); \( \frac{2}{3} > \frac{2}{6} \); \( \frac{3}{4} < \frac{7}{8} \) (\( \frac{6}{8} < \frac{7}{8} \)).

Chef Leo's Scoop: \( \frac{3}{4} = \frac{6}{8} \); Leo needs 6 scoops of \( \frac{1}{8} \).

Ordering: \( \frac{1}{8} < \frac{1}{4} < \frac{1}{2} < \frac{3}{4} \).

3 Day 3: Grand Feast Menu Solutions Worksheet 3

Level 1 Pizza Addition: \( \frac{2}{6} + \frac{3}{6} = \frac{5}{6} \) of a tray.

Level 2 Dish A: \( \frac{3}{8} + \frac{4}{8} = \frac{7}{8} \) cup.

Level 2 Dish B: \( \frac{2}{5} + \frac{2}{5} = \frac{4}{5} \) quart.

Leftover Cake: \( \frac{10}{10} - \frac{7}{10} = \frac{3}{10} \) cake remaining.

Level 3 Glaze: \( \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{4} \); \( \frac{2}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4} \) cup.

Scaling Brown Sugar: \( 3 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{9}{4} \) cups = 2 \( \frac{1}{4} \) cups.
