Understanding Fractions and Their Comparisons

The video tutorial explains unit fractions using shaded circles, comparing them based on denominators. It demonstrates how greater denominators result in smaller fractions and vice versa. The tutorial arranges fractions from greatest to smallest, providing examples with different denominators. It concludes with a final arrangement of fractions, reinforcing the concept of ordering fractions by size.

What is a unit fraction?

• A fraction with a denominator of one

• A fraction with a numerator of one

• A fraction with a numerator greater than the denominator

• A fraction with equal numerator and denominator

How does the size of a unit fraction change with the denominator?

• Larger denominators make the fraction larger

• Larger denominators make the fraction smaller

• The size of the fraction does not change

• Smaller denominators make the fraction smaller

What happens to the size of a unit fraction as the denominator decreases?

• The fraction remains the same

• The fraction becomes zero

• The fraction becomes larger

• The fraction becomes smaller

Which fraction is larger: 1/4 or 1/3?

• 1/4

• 1/3

• Cannot be determined

• They are equal

Arrange the following fractions from greatest to smallest: 1/2, 1/3, 1/4.

• 1/4, 1/2, 1/3

• 1/3, 1/2, 1/4

• 1/4, 1/3, 1/2

• 1/2, 1/3, 1/4

Which of the following fractions is the largest: 1/2, 1/3, or 1/4?

• 1/3

• 1/2

• They are all equal

• 1/4

Which fraction is smaller: 1/10 or 1/9?

• 1/10

• 1/9

• They are equal

• Cannot be determined

If a circle is divided into 5 equal parts and one part is shaded, what fraction of the circle is shaded?

• 1/3

• 1/2

• 1/4

• 1/5

What is the order of the fractions 1/5, 1/9, and 1/10 from greatest to smallest?

• 1/9, 1/5, 1/10

• 1/10, 1/9, 1/5

• 1/5, 1/9, 1/10

• 1/5, 1/10, 1/9
