MRS. JACKSON189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YUSeRjlxk
(to LENA) Okay then... (directs class) With fractions; we must find the common denominator; then add the numerators; and then simplify the fraction...

189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvwd8PCnk3
MRS. JACKSON189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY04rNYNpkI
(shocked; to LENA) My goodness LENA... you are right? Well... well done. Explain your reasoning...
LENA189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyN0508MYay
(to MRS. JACKSON) Well both fractions 2/4 and 2/4... have like denominators... so then you add the numerators. After that since 4 divided by 4 is 1 - the answer is 1...
MRS. JACKSON189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lkwDpLDhM
(Shocked to LENA) Well done LENA... that’s right...
(LENA smiles)
MRS. JACKSON189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDa0A81EM1

(To PRINCE) Incorrect PRINCE... (to LENA) And correct again LENA... well done... you’ve picked that up too fast...
PRINCE189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyhIsgVYrz
(annoyed to himself) WHAT... DAMN... HOW...
MRS JACKSON189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpf3JsgwN0
(to LENA) EXPLAIN YOUR REASONING ONCE AGAIN LENA...
LENA189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBgi124x8x
(explains to MRS JACKSON) Okay... again... the two fractions have like denominators.... so you add the numerators. However the fraction can not be reduced. The fraction would be the same as 13/4. 13/4 is evidently the same as 13 divided by 4. THEN we must convert the fraction to a mixed number using long number...
(LENA performs the long division formula on the whiteboard; this equaling to 3 1/4. MRS JACKSON is impressed).
MRS. JACKSON189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7D49HPjtK
(smiles to LENA) Well done LENA... Your math skills are most superb...
PRINCE189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKCDgAo1X2

(LENA still shy; becomes brave and stands up for herself to PRINCE)
LENA189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5vnWzF6MJ
(to PRINCE) Well it wasn’t right when you did it to me in ENGLISH class. I say payback. Intelligence is measured in all forms... some of us may be good at one thing; but may suck at another thing... It’s good to focus on SOMETHING YOU ARE GOOD AT...
(LEE smiles at LENA)
LEE189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLnvJ3Yq9f

LEE189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOdTzTnF8u
(annoyed to DUTY TEACHER) I’m sorry SIR... but I didn’t like PRINCE picking on LENA... He did in front of class; and now on lunch break... I find it rude and disgusting...
(PRINCE chuckles and stops holding his stomach. THE DUTY TEACHER looks firm at PRINCE in annoyance)
DUTY TEACHER189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aNuCXrspz
(firm to PRINCE) So what LEE is saying is right... is that correct?
