What fractions mean

In $\frac{3}{4}$ , the whole is cut into 4 equal parts, and you have 3 of them.

Work through it

Cutting each half into 2 pieces makes 4 pieces, and one half becomes 2 of them.

Multiply the top and bottom by the same number.

Both numbers can be divided by 2.

$\frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{1}{8}$ is bigger than $\frac{1}{4}$ because 8 is bigger than 4.

More pieces means smaller pieces. Cut into 8 parts, each part is smaller than when cut into 4.
