Parts of a Whole By Mr. Bales

Objective By the end of this lesson, you will be able to identify, write, and read fractions for parts of a whole. Standard 4NS1.5 - Students will explain different interpretations of fractions, for example, parts of a whole…. Standard 4NS1.7 - Students will write the fraction represented by a drawing of parts of a figure; represent a given fraction by using drawings….

What fraction of the cake is not eaten? 3434 The number that tells how many equal parts are described is the numerator. The number that tells the number of equal parts in the whole is called the denominator. A fraction is a way of representing part of a whole or part of a group.

The pizza has been cut into three equal parts. We call these thirds. A third is written as 1313.

The whole pizza cut into three equal parts gives us thirds. Think about just one slice. We can write this using a fraction

Think about two slices. Two slices is two thirds. We can write two thirds as 2 3. The top number of the fraction tells us how many slices we have. We call it the numerator. The bottom number tells us how many parts in the whole pizza. We call it the denominator.

If all the pieces of a whole are present, we call that 1 whole. Since 6 slices of the cake are present, we can say that 6666 = 1 whole

Teach A fraction is always a fraction of something. For example, 1/2 of an orange Or 2/3 of a rectangular region We refer to “something” as the whole, or one.

More on Fractions Important: the parts into which the whole is divided must be the same size - “fair shares”. Important: Fractions can be written two ways: 2 3 Or as 2/3.

Denominator vs. Numerator A denominator is a number below the fraction bar. It names the number of equal parts into which the whole is divided. The numerator is the number above the fraction bar. It names the number of parts under consideration. Example: 3 numerator 4 denominator A denominator is a number below the fraction bar. It names the number of equal parts into which the whole is divided. The numerator is the number above the fraction bar. It names the number of parts under consideration. Example: 3 numerator 4 denominator
