  10. Now, Let’s Visualize Fractions

  11. Fraction Pies 1 6 There is 1 pink box out of 6 whole boxes. So, the fraction for this pie is 1/6.

  12. Fraction Pies 6 Whole: _______ Pieces Taken Away: _______ 1 2 1 6 3 5 4 There are 6 pieces of pie. You eat 1 piece. How many pieces of the whole pie have been taken away? 1 6

  13. Fraction Pies What’s the Fraction? Whole: ______ Pieces Taken Away: _____ Fraction: _____ Green 1 2

  14. Fraction Pies 1 2 The fractions is _______. There are 2 wholes with 1 pieces taken away. Therefore, ½ of the pie has been taken away.

  15. Fraction Pies Whole: ______ Pieces Taken: Purple Fraction: ______ 2 3 1 4 8 5 7 6

  16. Fraction Pies The Fraction is 3/8. There are 8 wholes and 3 pieces have been taken away. Therefore, 3/8 of the pie has been taken away.

  17. Fraction Pies If 3/8 of a pie has been eaten, then how much of that pie is left? 8 - 3 = 5 Pieces left The Whole 5/8 of pie is left. Pieces eaten

  18. Your Turn • Now, make your own fraction pie. • Draw a pie and cut it into different pieces. Then shade in how many pieces you will give your friends. • Then, write down the whole, the pieces given away, the fraction given away, and the fraction that is left.
