Answer 1

When a whole is divided into equal parts each equal part is called ​a fraction of a whole.

• When a whole is divided into two or more than two equal parts then those parts are referred to as a fraction of a whole.
• For example, assume that there are five children and a cake. The cake needs to be divided among those five children, then if the cake is cut into five equal parts, each child will get 1/5 part of the cake, which will be the required fraction.
