'Which fraction is bigger?' for 2nd grade
2nd grade / Fractions / Compare fractions / Which fraction is bigger?
2nd grade : Compare fractions - which fraction is bigger?
Knowing which fraction is bigger or smaller is not always obvious. If we compare fractions that have the same number on the bottom (the denominator) like ⅖, ⅗ and ⅘, then the bigger the number on the top (the numerator) the bigger the fraction is.
If we compare ⅘ to ⅖, we can see that these two fractions have the same denominator of 5. The numerators are 4 and 2. So we can say that ⅘ is the bigger of these two fractions. This makes sense because if I have ⅘ of a pie, that is more of the pie than if I have only got ⅖ of the pie.
There is another type of fraction that we need to talk about, unit fractions.
A unit fraction is the name for a fraction where the number on the top is a 1.
So ½ is a unit fraction and so are ⅐ and ⅛ but ⅖ is not because it's numerator is not 1, it is 2.
Comparing unit fractions to find the biggest is not as easy as our first example. If we think about the two most common unit fractions, ¼ and ½, we will see why. Which is bigger, ¼ of a cake or ½ a cake? The answer is that ½ a cake is a bigger share of the cake than ¼ of a cake even though the denominator of ½, which is 2, is smaller than the denominator of ¼, which is 4.
In the same way, if we compare ¼ with ⅛ to decide which is bigger, we will find that a ¼ share of that nice cake is a bigger share of the cake than a ⅛ share. So ¼ is a bigger fraction than ⅛.
So now we can compare some fractions with the same denominator, and we can compare some unit fractions, and we can decide which is the biggest and which is the smallest.
With our UXO math game you will be practicing the topic "Which fraction is bigger?" from 2nd grade / Fractions / Compare fractions. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to for each pair of fractions, choose which one would be the bigger share of a whole.
UXO is a fun game to learn math where you attempt to knock over all the target objects while avoiding clicking / tapping on the bombs.
After each level, win an additional 50 points by correctly answering a math question from your selected topic. Wrong answers lose you 20 points but you can answer multiple times. Each level lasts 30 seconds: if you haven't cleared all the targets in that time, you lose 50 points. High scores can be added to the UXO leaderboards.
Notes
- This is a fast-paced game of clicking or dragging over moving targets.
- Also suitable for tablets and mobiles (it's actually easier than with a mouse)
- Answer math questions correctly for a higher score
- Hit all the targets in 30 seconds or you lose points.

'Which fraction is bigger?' for 2nd grade
UXO is a "click to clear" game with targets to hit and bombs to avoid.
- In each level of UXO, hit all the target objects.
- You can clear targets by clicking on them or by dragging over them with the mouse down.
- You have 30 seconds in each level to clear the targets.
- There are 10 levels max in the game.
- In the first level there are 10 targets and 5 bombs.
- The number of targets increases by one in each level.
- You get 10 points for each target you hit.
- You lose 5 points for each bomb you hit.
- When you have hit all the targets or 30 seconds have elapsed, you get a math question from your selected topic.
- Answering the question correctly adds 50 points to your score.
- A wrong answer takes 20 points away from your score.
- If you get a question wrong, you can try to answer again.
- Your final score is a combination of your targets score minus your bombs score plus the points you get from the math questions.
- There is a high score leaderboard for each topic.
- The highest possible score for a 10 question topic is 1950.
