• Fractions can and will help you in real life. In order to figure out 
how to make only part of a recipe because you do not want to 
feed ten people, but only five, fractions will be very helpful. 
• 
You can use fractions to divide cake, or candy, and you will 
need fractions to help figure out percents. 
• 
Fractions are useful when you buy paint to make your house 
look nice and for figuring how much interest you will pay to the 
bank when you take a loan. 
• 
If u want to buy something so if it is not in ur budget u will buy 
it in installments so u can also count the money in fractions also.
The parts representing out of a whole. 
Here u can see 1 pizza 
I t is divided into 6 equal parts 
Now u have eaten a slice so, u 
have eaten 1 part from a whole 
means from 6 parts = 
Fraction of eaten parts
The parts representing out of a whole. 
Here u can see 1 chocolate 
I t is divided into 5 equal parts 
Now u have eaten a piece so, u 
have eaten 1 part from a whole 
means from 5 parts = 
Fraction of eaten parts

The number that is DOWN is the 
Denominator!
2 is Green 
4 This is 1 whole 
It is divided into 4 equal parts 
We shade its 2 parts green

The flag of Nigeria has 3 equal parts. 
What fraction of the flag is green ? 
Numerator 
Denominator 
Ans. Two Thirds of the flag is Green
Ordering Fractions 
• You will be asked to order fractions from 
Greatest to Least (Descending order) and 
from Least to Greatest (Ascending order)

Equivalent Fractions 
• EQUivALent means EQUAL! 
E.g. 2/4 is also equal to ½ (that means 
half of an object) 
We take a 
whole 
2/4 ½ 
We divide it into 4 equal 
parts 
We divide it into 2 equal 
parts
Cross Multiplication 
• To find equivalent fractions… 
Use bottoms up! 
24 3 4 24 
= 
6 8 
24 = 24
Mixed Numbers 
• A mixed number is a whole number and a 
fraction combined 
There are 3 whole apples and half apple so , it 
will be written as
Mixed Numbers 
• Count the WHOLEs first 
• Then find the FRACTIONal part
Finding Parts of a Set 
When a picture is not given, you have two choices: 
1. Draw a picture and solve! 
2. Do the math! 
Sol. 64

= 64 =
