As it was 'Pancake Day' students had the promise of pancakes to inspire their continued understand and application of fractions.
Mr Guyler purchased...
1 litre of milk
10 eggs
and 1 kg of flour.
Each batch made 12 pancakes and required
300ml milk
2 eggs
100g flour
Can you work out the fraction of the total he required for each batch?
After successful calculations, students instructed 'Chef - Fraction Frankie' how to create the mix using estimation.
The results were delicious and students went home with their appetites satisfied, yet hungry for further fun fractions.
