dn.YOUR LEARNING, STEP BY STEP
YEAR 7 · FRACTIONS
3/4 + 2/3 = ?
Find 3/4 + 2/3. Give your answer as a mixed number.
See the step-by-step approach+
Find a shared unit
Quarters and thirds are different-sized pieces. Rewrite both fractions in twelfths.
3/4 = 9/12 · 2/3 = 8/12
Combine the pieces
Now the denominators match, add the numerators.
9/12 + 8/12 = 17/12
Check the result
Both fractions are less than one, but together they exceed one. Convert to a mixed number.
17/12 = 1 5/12
Understand the pieces first. The rule then has a reason.

THE BIG PICTURE
What you’ll learn.
Key areas we can work through together, matched to your school’s program and current level.
Number
Integers, fractions, decimals, percentages, powers and square roots. Build number sense and learn to check calculations with estimates.
Algebra
Expressions, substitution and simple equations. Turn a worded situation into maths and explain what the unknown represents.
Measurement
Area, volume and units. Choose the right measurement and show why the formula fits.
Space
Angles, shapes, transformations and coordinates. Use diagrams to make spatial relationships clearer.
Statistics
Data displays, averages and spread. Read graphs carefully and explain what the data shows.
Probability
Sample spaces and chance. List possible outcomes and connect everyday language to numerical probabilities.
BEYOND THE ANSWER
Skills we’ll build.
Our tutoring focus: understanding the idea, practising with purpose, and becoming more independent.
Turn worded questions into manageable steps.
Show clear working and check whether answers make sense.
Build a steady homework and revision routine.
