Game: DUCK SHOOT
Aim: Shoot as many ducks as you can
Method:
Use the catapult to shoot balls at the rows of ducks crossing the screen. Answer questions to win extra points.
Your final score is based on ducks hit or missed and the number of questions answered correctly.
4th grade / Fractions / Subtract fractions / Subtract mixed fractions with borrowing
A mixed number has a whole number part and a fraction part. Sometimes when you want to subtract 2 mixed numbers, you will find that the fraction part of the second number is greater than that of the first. For instance, in the sum 2⅓ - 1⅔ the fraction part of the second number is greater than the fraction part of the first number.
So one way to solve such a sum is to borrow 1 from the first whole number (which is reduced by 1) and add it to the fraction part so that the fraction part of the first number becomes greater than the fraction part of the second number. In our example, 2⅓ - 1⅔ becomes:
Now you can subract the fraction part first, and then the whole numbers to arrive at the solution.
A different way to think about this sum (and any similar sum where the denominators of the fraction parts are the same) is to count up from the second number to the first. So in our example above, counting up from one and two thirds to two gives us one third, and then we need another third to get to the first number two and a third, so the difference between the 2 numbers is two thirds.
With our Duck shoot math game you will be practicing the topic "Subtract mixed fractions with borrowing" from 4th grade / Fractions / Subtract fractions. The math in this game consists of 14 questions that ask you to use borrowing to subtract mixed fractions.
DUCK SHOOT is a fun game to learn math where you attempt to knock over all the fairground ducks in each level. In the first level there are only 6 ducks but by level 10 there are 24 fast moving "quackers quacking"...
After each level, win an additional 20 points by correctly answering a math question from your selected topic. There is no timer in this game: take as long as you like to answer the math questions correctly for a best score to get you on the DUCK SHOOT leaderboard.
