Exploring Fraction Operations and Reviews

This video tutorial provides a comprehensive review of fractions, covering the four main operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It explains how to handle fractions with different denominators, multiply and divide fractions using reciprocals, and simplify fractions by finding common factors. The tutorial also introduces proportions and demonstrates cross-multiplication to solve them.
