Show transcript
A non-unit fraction has a numerator greater than 1; it is composed of more than one unit fraction. We say, 'the whole has been divided into ___ equal parts, and I have ___ of them'. Dual language of 'five-sixths' and 'five one-sixths' can be used to describe non-unit fractions. When describing a fraction of the whole, the whole could be a shape, a line or a group of objects.
