3. Motivation
Do you know what your parents do to earn a living? (Wait for their response). There is a
man, we call Mang Pablo. He earns a living by planting fruit trees. Let’s find out how Mang
Pablo does his job. (Include some questions in the discussion to find out the attitude of
their parents towards job.)

B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
a. Read the problem:
Mang Pablo and 4 of his friends went to his lanzones farm. He was happy when
2
he saw the trees with fruits ready to harvest. Each basket contained 8 kilograms.
3
1
Mang Pablo gave each of his friends 3 2 kilograms for helping pick the fruits and
sold the rest. How many kilograms of lanzones were left?

b. Solution to the problem:

Understand: Know what is asked in the problem.
The kilograms of lanzones left.
1 2
Know the given facts: 10 2 baskets of lanzones picked by mang Pablo, 8 3 kg. of
1
lanzones each basket contained, 3 kg. of lanzones were given to his friends, and 4
2
were the friends.
Plan: Determine the operation to be used- Multiplication and Subtraction
Solve: Show your solution
1 2 1
(10 2 𝑥 8 3) − (3 2 𝑥 4 ) =
21 26 7 4
( 2 𝑥 3 ) − (2 𝑥 1) =
91 - 14 = 77 kg. of lanzones were left
Check: Look back

2. Activity
 Divide the class into 4 groups. Assign one word problem for them to answer. Let them
brainstorm on the said problem and come up with a complete solution. Ask one volunteer
from each group to present their answer in the class.
1. There are 50 pupils in a class. Four-fifths of the class are boys. How many are boys?
3
2. A coin weighs about 6 4 grams. How many grams will eight of this coin weigh?
3. Skateboards cost 450.00 each in the local store. The shopkeeper says if you buy one,
5
you can buy the second one for only of the regular price. How much would two
9
skateboards cost?

4. Francine has 50 buns. She sold 10 of it and gave 3 of the remaining buns to her
brother. How many buns were left to Francine?
3. Generalization
To lead generalization by asking:
How do we solve routine or non-routine problems involving multiplication with or
without addition or subtraction of fractions and mixed fractions using appropriate problem
solving strategies and tools.

In solving problems, we follow these

steps: Solve
Understand  Show the solution to the
 Know what the problem asked problem
 Know the given facts Check
Plan  Check if the answer is
 Determine the operation to use reasonable
 Write the number sentence  State the complete answer

4. Application
Read and solve the problem
1 3
Rialyn has 64 stamps. Lilian has 1 2 times as many as Rialyn. Ely has 4 as many as Lilian.
How many stamps do the girls have together?

IV. ASSESSMENT
Refer to pages 28 in the textbook and let the pupils answer Evaluate C, 1-10 items.

V. ASSIGNMENT
Refer to pages 29 in the textbook and let the pupils answer Math Challenge 1-5 items.

VI. REMARKS
Lack of time, needs to continue the discussion tomorrow. (Continue: Activity)
