Halves, Quarters and Eighths

The denominator tells how many equal parts make the whole. Unit fractions have numerator 1.

Key ideas

  • halves
  • quarters
  • eighths
  • fractions of collections
  • compare familiar unit fractions

Worked example: 1/8 is smaller than 1/4 for the same-sized whole.

Common trap: A larger denominator means smaller unit parts when the whole is the same size.

Key words

numerator — top number
denominator — bottom number naming equal parts
quarter — one of four equal parts
eighth — one of eight equal parts
unit fraction — fraction with numerator 1
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 30 attempts on the same browser.
