RATIONALE

Fractions really are everywhere! Every time we cut an apple, an orange, or any kind of fruit, we are talking a piece of the whole. We can represent those pieces as fractions. Fractions are part of a whole. That’s part of something bigger. Fractions have two numbers, a numerator (the part) and a denominator (the whole). Equivalent fractions are equal in value. They represent the same amount of the whole.
