What is a fraction equal to two thirds that has a denominator of six?
In a fraction you are looking at parts of a whole, thus if you think of this as a pie and the lower number as the number of pieces the pie has been cut into. the top number of pieces you intend to remove or work with. thus your query of what does 2/3 equal... If you cut each piece of pie into another equal piece then the answer 4/6 is correct. the denominator is the lower number or the total number of pieces that the pie is cut up into. the numerator is the number of pieces you plan to work with or eat...
Why is one third greater than one fourth?
When something is cut into equal pieces, (think of a pie), the pieces are larger the fewer pieces there are. If the pie is cut in half, that is an entire HALF of the pie one has to eat. But if the pie is cut into three equal pieces, there are more pieces, but they are smaller. So, one fourth of the pie would be even smaller because you are getting ONE piece of a pie that is cut into FOUR pieces. The bottom number of the fraction is how many equal sized pieces there are, and the top number is how many you are getting.
How can you cut a cake into 7 equal pieces making only 3 straight cuts?
1) One vertical cut in half.2) A second vertical cut at 90 degrees to the previous one. You should now have 4 equal pieces.3) Make a cut parallel to the table, halfway through the cake. Like you are slicing a bagel in half or a subway sandwich. Should now have 8 equal pieces.4) Eat one piece!
How do you divide an area into equal pieces?
If the shape has high symmetry like a circle then it's easy to do. If not, measure the area, divide it by N (the number of pieces you want) and chop off that quanitity (N-1) times and, with the bit left over you will have N equal pieces.
How do you find the point that divides a line segment according to a given ratio?
-- ADD the two numbers in the ratio.-- Then divide the line segment into that many equal pieces.-- From one end, count off a number of pieces equal to either number in the ratio.-- At the point after that many pieces, the two parts of the line segment on either sideof it are in the desired ratio.

How can 25 percent of a sandwich equal 50 percent of another sandwich?
If the first sandwich is twice the size of the second one, then 25% of the first one will equal 50% of the second one. The same things would be true if the second sandwich was half the size of the first one, which is the same thing.
