Exploding Algebraic Fractions
Free
There are four “explosions” for students to deal with, each covering different types of algebraic fraction. The first slide involves simple indices and simplifying, the second involves adding and subtracting (find a common denominator), the third has algebraic expressions as denominators and the fourth involves factorising quadratics. These are designed to stop students getting in a rut of doing the same thing over and over again, plus they should (hopefully!) generate good mathematical discussions.
