What to Focus On

- The denominator cannot be zero.
- Fractions represent equal parts of a whole.
- Like fractions have the same denominator.
- Proper fractions are less than 1, improper fractions are 1 or more.
- Mixed numbers combine whole numbers and fractions.
- Multiply or divide numerator and denominator by the same number to get equivalent fractions.
- Cross-multiplication helps verify equivalence.
