Learning Objectives
Learning Objective(s) At the end of the cycle, trainees will be able to:
1. Perform addition, subtraction, and multiplication with fractions and
decimals.
2. Apply these operations to practical scenarios in electrical work, carpentry,
welding, and auto-mechanics.
3. Demonstrate solving vocational-related problems involving fractions and
decimals.
Participatory Learning
Theoretical - Begin by discussing the importance of mathematical skills in vocational
Activity/Practical fields such as electrical work, carpentry, welding, and auto-mechanics.
Activity - Explain that fractions and decimals are commonly used in these fields for
precise measurements and calculations.
- Review the basics of adding and subtracting fractions with like
denominators.
- Introduce the concept of finding a common denominator when adding or
subtracting fractions with different denominators.
- Provide step-by-step examples on the whiteboard.
- Review the procedure for multiplying fractions and decimals.
- Discuss how multiplication can be applied in vocational scenarios,
such as calculating material costs or electrical loads.
- Provide examples on the whiteboard, emphasizing the importance of
canceling out common factors.
- discuss how addition, subtraction, and multiplication of fractions and
decimals are used in electrical work, carpentry, welding, and auto-
mechanics.
- Share specific examples for each field, such as calculating wire
lengths, measuring, and cutting materials, welding material thickness,
and calculating engine displacement.
- Provide worksheets with practice problems related to addition,
subtraction, and multiplication of fractions and decimals.
- Have students work in pairs or small groups to solve these problems.
- Walk around the room to provide assistance and answer questions as
needed.
- Distribute answer keys for the worksheets and allow students to
check their work.
- Review the correct solutions as a class, addressing any common
mistakes or misconceptions.

Seated Practice with Answers
Instructions: Solve the following problems involving fractions and decimals. Check your answers with the
provided solutions.
Problem 1: Electrical Work
You need to install a wire that is 3/8 of a foot long and another wire that is 1/4 of a foot long. How long are the
wires combined?
Solution 1:
To find the total length of the wires, add the fractions:
3/8 + 1/4
First, find a common denominator, which is 8 in this case. Rewrite 1/4 as an equivalent fraction with a
denominator of 8:
3/8 + 2/8
Now, add the fractions:
(3 + 2)/8 = 5/8
So, the combined length of the wires is 5/8 of a foot.
Problem 2: Carpentry
You have a board that is 3.5 feet long. You need to cut off 1.25 feet from the board. How long will the remaining
piece be?
Solution 2:
To find the length of the remaining piece, subtract 1.25 feet from 3.5 feet:
3.5 - 1.25 = 2.25 feet

So, the remaining piece is 2.25 feet long.
Problem 3: Welding
You are welding a steel plate that is 0.375 inches thick. You need to weld another plate that is 0.125 inches thick
on top of it. What will be the total thickness of the welded plates?
Solution 3:
To find the total thickness of the welded plates, add the decimal numbers:
0.375 + 0.125 = 0.5
So, the total thickness of the welded plates will be 0.5 inches.
Problem 4: Auto-Mechanics
You are working on an engine with a cylinder bore diameter of 3.75 inches. If you need to increase the bore
diameter by 0.0625 inches, what will be the new diameter?
Solution 4:
To find the new diameter, add 0.0625 inches to the current diameter:
3.75 + 0.0625 = 3.8125 inches
So, the new diameter will be 3.8125 inches.
Problem 5: Electrical Work
You have two wires. One is 1/3 of a foot long, and the other is 0.75 feet long. What is the total length of these
wires?
Solution 5:
To find the total length of the wires, add the fractions and the decimal:
1/3 + 0.75
First, convert 0.75 to a fraction with a denominator of 3:
1/3 + 3/4
Now, find a common denominator, which is 12 in this case:
4/12 + 9/12
Now, add the fractions:
(4 + 9)/12 = 13/12
Since 13/12 is an improper fraction, you can convert it to a mixed number:
13/12 = 1 1/12
So, the total length of the wires is 1 foot and 1/12 of a foot.

Problem 1: Electrical Work

To find the total length of the wires, add the fractions:

Now, add the fractions:

So, the combined length of the wires is 5/8 of a foot.

3.5 - 1.25 = 2.25 feet

0.375 + 0.125 = 0.5

3.75 + 0.0625 = 3.8125 inches

So, the new diameter will be 3.8125 inches.

Problem 5: Electrical Work

First, convert 0.75 to a fraction with a denominator of 3:

Now, find a common denominator, which is 12 in this case:

Now, add the fractions:

Since 13/12 is an improper fraction, you can convert it to a mixed number:
