If you use a 2x8 plate to represent one whole, what fraction does a 1x1 plate represent? How about a 1x2 plate? What would a 2x2 plate represent? How would you represent the fraction 1/2?

Using a variety of Lego plates, complete the following calculations:

1/16 + 1/16 =
1/16 + 1/8 =
1/16 + 1/4 =
1/16 + 1/2 =
5/16 + 1/4 =
7/16 + 1/8 =
7/16 + 1/2 =
9/16 + 1/4 =
