Visual Fractions by Dr. Pi Squared
Learn what a fraction is
See firsthand what a fraction is.
Various shapes are divided into different colors.
Figure out which fraction of each shape is each color.
Simple example: In the circle above, 1/2 is blue, 1/4 is red, and 1/4 is yellow.
Answer key is included. The answers are in reduced form. For example, 2/4 reduces to 1/2.
Designed as a paperback with room to write the answers.
Pie slices
Some exercises have pies divided into slices of various colors.
Determine which fraction of each pie is which color.
Two pages later in the book are dedicated to mixed numbers where the fraction is more than one pie (for example, two and three-fourths pies).
Smiley faces
Some problems feature smiley faces, words, arrows, or numbers.
In each set, there are objects of different colors.
Determine which fraction of each set is which color.
Simple example: For the group of smiley faces above, 1/2 are blue, 1/3 are yellow, and 1/6 are red.
Note that 3/6 is equivalent to 1/2. Three out of the total six smiley faces are blue, and you can divide them into three groups such that one out of two is blue in each group.
Fraction pyramid
Not all of the shapes are circles.
Some of the shapes are triangles, squares, rectangles, or hexagons.
Each shape is divided into pieces with different colors.
Determine which fraction of each shape is which color.
