Common Core Standard 4.NF.2Â Lesson Plans
In Fourth Grade Number and Operations—Fractions, Item 1, the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics reads:
4.NF.2 Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
