Imagine a pie or Pizza, cut it in half, now you have 2 equal parts. Each is 1/2. If you put them together, you have 1 whole (pie or pizza) same concept if you cut it into 6 pieces, then put back together. Each of those parts is 1/6. All 6 together is 6/6 or 1 (essentially the same, we use 1 to simplify) obviously you can make 1 whole into as many parts as you like, for example 10, each of those would be 1/10 and 10/10 (or 10 together) make 1. The bottom number tells you size of increment or how small the part is in a fraction, i.e. how many of those make 1 whole. when they match like 10/10 you have a whole. If you see something like 20/10 that would simplify to 2.

How many sixths in one and one third?
There are 8 sixths in 1 and 1/3. (One whole and 2 sixths) 1 1/3 = 4/3 4/3 = 8/6
What is a whole minus a sixth?
One minus a sixth is five sixths.
What is four sixths plus one third?
3/3 or 1 whole coz 4/6 is the same as 2/3 then + 1/3
How many sixths are in 3 halves?
There are nine sixths because one whole equals six sixths and one half equals three sixths. So, six sixths plus three sixths equals nine sixths! Hope I helped!
What is larger five sixths or one whole?
One whole
Why does six sixth equal one whole?
Well, if you have one whole and split it into six parts you get sixths. And if you put all sixths together you have what you started with, one whole.
How many halves are there in one whole?
2 halves make a whole
What is 1 and a half minus 2 thirds?
You have to convert your fractions so that they are all the same. In this case, we can use sixths. So two and three sixths (two and a half), minus one and four sixths (one and two thirds), would equal five sixths. Another way to do it is to convert the whole numbers to sixths as well. Fifteen sixths minus ten sixths equals five sixths.
Three sixths is the same as one?
3/6 is the same as 1/2: Three sixths is the same as one half.
How many one sixths make a whole?
6
how many twenty-sixths are in one whole?
26
How many sixths make's one whole?
six
Is one sixth less than one third?
Yes. One sixth is one half of one third to be exact. Two-sixths are equal to one-third, three-sixths is a half, four-sixths is two-thirds, five-sixths is exactly what it is, and six-sixths is a whole.
Is eight halves equal to one and two sixths?
Let's see. Eight halves is the same as 8/2. 1 and 2/6 is also the same as 8/6. 8/2 does not equal 8/6.
How many halves in ten whole?
twenty. Two halves make one whole. So in ten wholes there are 10 x 2 = 20 halves.
