Breaking Apart Fractions - A Fraction as the Sum of Unit Fractions
We know that a unit-fraction is a fraction with Numerator "1" and Denominator any whole number greater than "1". Any other fraction can be broken into unit fractions. In this activity we will break apart a non unit fraction into a number of unit fractions and then we will combine some of the unit fractions in the answer to show the breaking of original fraction in another way.
Below is the activity showing how to represent any given fraction as sum of unit and non unit fractions.
Now you draw the following fractions, then represent them as the sum of unit fractions. Finally show the same fraction two more ways as the sum of unit or non unit fractions.
- 2/3
- 3/5
- 4/9
- 4/3
- 7/5
I never heard that term "Breaking Apart Fractions", every day I learn something different with these contents that you propose in your publications.

According to me, a unit of measurement is a definite magnitude of a quantity, defined and adopted by convention or by law, that is used as a standard for measurement of the same kind of quantity. Mathematics is an amazing subjects.

A unit fraction is a rational number written as a fraction where the numerator is one and the denominator is a positive integer. A unit fraction is therefore the reciprocal of a positive integer, 1/n. Examples are 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, etc.
Valuable post sir. It is really very beneficial for students. Mathematics is my favourite subject and I love to do it daily.☺
