Using fractions in real life?
You use fractions (or some variation, such as decimals) in any situation where whole numbers are not sufficient. For example, when you want to measure the object of a length in meters, and a whole number of meters is not precise enough.
Can you find 3 different ways to use fractions in your daily life?
Sure, honey. You can use fractions when following a recipe and measuring ingredients, when calculating discounts or sales prices while shopping, and when dividing up a pizza among friends. Fractions are everywhere, just like wrinkles and bad decisions.
What are some real life applications of gcf and LCM?
Those are commonly used for working with fractions. You need the least common multiple to find a common denominator, for adding or subtracting fractions. And after doing some manipulations with fractions, you need the greatest common factor to simplify the fractions.Now, whether this is sufficiently "real-life" for you, is another issue. Depending on the career you choose, you many need to work with fractions on a daily basis, or you may hardly ever need them.
