FRACTIONS
A
fraction
is
a
part
of
an
entire
object.
The
top
number
of
a
fraction
is
called
the
numerator.
It
shows
how
many
pieces
of
a
whole
we
are
talking
about.
In
the
fraction
3/8,
we
are
talking
about
three
pieces.
The
bottom
number
is
called
the
denominator.
It
shows
how
many
pieces
an
object
was
divided
into,
or
how
many
TOTAL
pieces
we
have.
The
fraction
3/8
tells
us
that
the
whole
object
was
divided
into
8
pieces.
If
the
denominators
of
two
fractions
are
the
same,
the
fraction
with
the
largest
numerator
is
the
larger
fraction.
5/8
is
larger
than
3/8
because
when
you
look
at
the
numerator,
you
know
that
five
pieces
are
more
than
three
pieces.
The
first
fraction
we
will
look
at
is
¼.
The
square
below
has
4
equal
parts.
¼ o
f
the
square
is
blue,
which
means
that
one
of
the
4
parts
of
the
square
is
blue.
The
fraction
¼
shows:
number
of
blue
parts
number
of
parts
in
all
We
can
also
say
that
¾
of
the
square
is
yellow,
which
means
that
3
of
the
4
parts
are
yellow.
The
fraction
¾
shows:
number
of
yellow
parts
number
of
parts
in
all
We
know
that
¾
is
a
larger
fraction
than
¼.

The
second
fraction
we
will
look
at
is
1/3.
The
circle
below
has
3
equal
parts.
1/3
of
the
circle
is
red,
which
means
that
1
of
the
3
parts
is
red.
The
fraction
1/3
shows:
number
of
red
parts
`
number
of
parts
in
all
We
can
also
say
that
2/3
of
the
circle
is
green,
which
means
that
2
of
the
3
parts
are
green.
The
fraction
2/3
shows:
number
of
green
parts
number
of
parts
in
all
We
know
that
2/3
is
a
larger
fraction
than
1/3.
The
third
fraction
we
will
look
at
is
1/2.
The
triangle
below
has
2
equal
parts.
1/2
of
the
triangle
is
yellow,
which
means
that
1
of
the
2
parts
is
yellow.
The
fraction
½
shows:
number
of
yellow
parts
number
of
parts
in
all

Equivalent
Fractions
Equivalent
fractions
are
fractions
that
name
the
same
amount
or
show
the
same
part
of
an
object.
Here
is
an
example.
If
a
pie
is
cut
into
two
pieces,
each
piece
is
also
one-half
of
the
pie.
If
a
pie
is
cut
into
4
pieces,
then
two
pieces
are
the
same
amount
of
pie
that
1/2
is
because
2
pieces
of
pie
makes
up
½
of
the
pie.
This
means
that
1/2
is
equivalent
to
2/4.

Let’s
try
another
example.
Look
at
the
square
below.
It
is
divided
into
3
equal
parts.
You
can
see
that
2/3
of
the
square
is
yellow
which
means
2
parts
of
the
square
are
yellow.
Let’s
divide
the
same
square
into
9
equal
parts.
Now,
6/9
of
the
square
is
yellow
which
means
that
6
parts
of
the
square
are
yellow.
Notice
that
6/9
takes
up
the
same
part
of
the
square
as
2/3.
That
tells
us
that
2/3
is
equivalent
to
6/9.
