If there is a yummy large pizza with eight slices and there are four of you, how will you decide how many pieces each of you will get? Will each of you get two slices, or will any of you eat lesser than the others, which means, some will get more than the others.
Welcome to the amazing world of fractions. A fraction represents part of a whole. When something is broken up into a number of parts, the fraction shows how many of those parts you have. If, for instance, each of you eat two slices each, then, each of you would have eaten 2/8 0r 1/4th of the pizza (two slices divided by the whole pizza, which is 8 slices).
Well, here are some fractions for you to try your hand at. Choose the correct answer. How many can you get right?
