QUESTIONS
UNIT ONE
1) 1.2 Consider the feedback guide as your rubric for marking this question. (5)
ACTIVITY 1.2
Show how 6 children can share 10 pizzas among themselves. Your illustration
4
should lead you to the following answer 1 6.
SOLUTION:
The number of pizzas are 10 to be shared among 6 children.
When each child gets a pizza, 4 will remain to be shared among them all (6).

ACTIVITY 1.3
(1) Define a fraction in your own words.
Fraction represents a part of a whole or any number of equal parts and describes how
many parts of a certain size there are, for example, one quarters, one eighth, one third,
one sixth.
A fraction is used to represent the portion/part of the whole thing. It represents the equal
parts of the whole. A fraction has two parts, namely numerator and denominator. The
number on the top is called the numerator, and the number on the bottom is called the
denominator. The numerator defines the number of equal parts taken, whereas the
denominator defines the total number of equal parts in a whole.
For example, 5/10 is a fraction.
Here, 5 is a numerator and 10 is a denominator.
Real Life Examples
In real life, we will many examples of fractions, such as:
If a pizza is divided into two equal parts, then each part is equal to half of the whole
pizza
If we divide a slice of watermelon into three equal parts then each part is equal 1/3rd of
the whole
Types of Fractions
There are four different types of fractions. They are:
Unit Fraction – In a fraction, the numerator with 1 is called a unit fraction. For example,
½, ¼
Proper Fraction – If a numerator value is less than the denominator value, it is called a
proper fraction. Example: 7/9, 8/10
Improper Fraction – If a numerator value is greater than the denominator value, then it is
called an improper fraction. Example: 6/5, 11/10
Mixed Fraction – If a fraction consists of a whole number with a proper fraction, it is
called a mixed fraction. Example 5 ¾, 10 ½
Other Types
Like Fractions – The fractions with the same denominator are called like fractions.
Example: 4/2, 7/2, 9/2
