Section 1
Representing One Whole as a Fraction
Property
A fraction is equal to the whole number 1 when its numerator (the top number) and its denominator (the bottom number) are the same.
(where is any whole number except 0)
In this Grade 4 lesson from Pengi Math Chapter 6, students learn to identify and define unit fractions — fractions with a numerator of 1 that represent one equal part of a whole divided into n parts. Students also practice representing one whole as a fraction in the form n/n, building a foundational understanding of how fractions relate to equal partitioning.

Section 2
Unit Fractions
The fractional unit is the name for the equal parts a whole is divided into (e.g., thirds, fourths).
A unit fraction is one of these equal parts, written as , where is the total number of equal parts.
