A visual representation using number lines shows students how the Identity Property of multiplication is used to rewrite fractions as equivalent fractions having different denominators. Secondly, addition and subtraction of like fractions are then performed on the number lines. It should be noted that this video presentation is designed for adult learners who have previously worked with fractions but lack concrete understanding.
