Concept of a fraction
If we cut a cake into two equal pieces, then eat one of them, we say that we have eaten 1/2 (half) a cake.
If we cut a cake into five equal pieces, then eat three of them, we say that we have eaten 3/5 (three fifths) of a cake.
1/2 and 3/5 are examples of fractions - parts of a whole.
