The document defines and provides examples of fractions. It explains that a whole can be divided into equal parts, like eighths. It then discusses how the Sebastian family divided their pizza into 8 equal pieces, so the fraction of the whole pizza is 8/8. Various other fractions that equal 1 whole are shown, such as halves, thirds, fourths, and eighths. The key parts of a fraction - the numerator, denominator, and fraction bar - are also defined.

2. What is
fraction?

5. The family of Mr. Sebastian baked pizza. They
divided it into 8 equal parts. What is the fraction for the
whole pizza?

6. See how whole pizza cut into 8 equal parts.
1 WHOLE 8/8

7. A whole can be divided
into equal parts, for example,
into 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or more equal
parts. Equal parts of a whole
have the same size and shape.
When put together, they are
equal to 1.
In the problem above,
there are 8equal parts. These 8
equal parts make up 1 whole.
So, 8 - eighths or 8/8 = 1
The fraction for the whole
pizza is 8/8.
