I was listening to a Spangles ad this a.m. & in it they pointed out the 1/3 lb burger is bigger than the 1/4 lb. Isn't it common knowledge?

I visited with a student the other day that referred to all fractions as "halves." He is really confused.

very odd...maybe they feel that the general public did not learn that in 5th grade. ;-)

nmangum: That was my thinking. How sad when we have to tell the general public something so basic.

DevSpamNull: IMO fractions are an important skill to learn. They are such a part of our daily lives whether they like them or not.

Maybe the news shows should give out that info along with the other important stuff they tell us, like dress warm in the winter or drink
