This video tutorial teaches how to express whole numbers as fractions using fraction models. It explains the concept of fractions as parts of a whole and demonstrates equivalence with examples like pies and pizzas. The video covers the roles of numerators and denominators in fractions and shows how any whole number can be expressed as a fraction by placing it over 1. Practical examples, such as dividing a pizza among students, help illustrate these concepts.
