Year 4 covers much of the fraction work which many people, both children and adults, find difficult. These include adding and subtracting fractions. But, with clear, step-by-step explanations these topics can become straightforward. Our four latest tutorials cover:

• Fractions and one whole one: A tutorial explaining that when the denominator and numerator are the same then the fraction will equal one whole one.

• Equivalent fractions: This tutorial explains that equivalent fractions are two or more fractions that are equal, even though they have different numerators and denominators.

• Adding fractions to make more than one: This guide looks at what to do when the total of adding two fractions comes to more than one whole one.

• Subtracting fractions from whole numbers: When subtracting a fraction from a whole number it is important to convert the whole number into fractions the same size as the fraction you are taking away. Our tutorial makes this much clearer than it appears!
