1. Mathematics FRACTIONS

2. What are Fractions? Fractions represent equal parts of a whole or a group. When we divide a whole into equal parts, each part is a fraction of the whole .

3. What are Fractions? When learning your fractions, the part that is shaded is called the numerator . The total amount of parts in the whole is called the denominator .

4. Numerator & Denominator We call the top number the Numerator , it is the number of parts we have . We call the bottom number the Denominator , it is the number of parts the whole is divided into .

5. Fractions Explained Fractions also represent parts of a set or group. For example , There are total of 4 children. 2 out of 4 are girls. So, the fraction of girls is two- quarters ( 2 ⁄ 4 ). 2 out of 5 are boys. So, the fraction of boys is two- fifths ( 2 ⁄ 5 ).

6. Fractions Explained Fractions can be broken down into a division number sentence.

7. Not Fractions These are not examples of fractions. Can you tell why?
