A foundational course that builds essential math skills for the SSAT Elementary Level.
Fractions show parts of a whole. If you cut a pizza into 4 pieces and eat 1, you’ve eaten \( \frac{1}{4} \) of the pizza.
A fraction has two parts:
Fractions can be bigger or smaller. \( \frac{1}{2} \) is more than \( \frac{1}{4} \) because half of something is more than just one piece out of four.
Fractions are everywhere—like sharing a chocolate bar or measuring cups for baking!
\[\frac{a}{b}\]
If you have 2 out of 8 slices of cake, you have \( \frac{2}{8} \) of the cake.
Half a glass of juice is \( \frac{1}{2} \).
Fractions help us talk about parts and sharing.
