##$%WEEK 9%$##

Week nine has been a very fun week. I have learnt how to divide fractions using *reciprocals i have learnt that all you have to do is make the fraction on the end of the question into a reciprocal then just use the same method as multiplying fractions then you have an answer.

I also learnt how to make the best mince I have ever tasted. All I used was 3/4 cup of water, 500g of mince and a taco seasoning pack. First I added the mince to a element at medium heat mixed it around till no red was left then I added the water and taco seasoning, left it to simmer for 10 minutes, Lastly serve the best mince ever and eat.

I have also learnt to use ratio ratio I found quite easy it is basically just a comparison of two numbers for example: There is a school bus with 15 students 8 are girls write the ratio of boys and girls. The answer: 8:7 as you can see this is just a way of comparing.

Me and the other year eights had the privilege of making our cafe in food tech. In this task we had to learn how to make a dish we then invited family or friends to come and feast upon our meals. The dish I created was a big plate of wraps I used the recipe above to make our mince then just made some toppings.

That has been my week nine learning reflection.




*A reciprocal is a fraction that is flipped upside down or in other words has the denominator and numerator swapped.

I have learnt a lot in maths I have been doing revision on how to work out problems involving fractions I learnt a real easy way to find the biggest fraction. How I do it is that I make the fraction into a decimal an easy way I learnt is that if the fraction is 5/8 you would divide 5 by 8 so an easier way is to divide the denominator by the numerator. I also have learnt to use an asterisk in my pieces of writing An *asterisk is a symbol that looks like this * you use it to normally describe a word normally at the bottom of a piece of writing.



















The definition of an asterisk is a symbol that is a six pointed star that is most often used to denote an absence or omission of information, or to refer a reader to a notation.
