A fraction is a "fraction" because it represent a number of smaller "pieces" or "parts" of a whole. For example 1/3 represents one of three equal sections of a whole object (1). The fraction 2/3 is equal to two of those parts (thirds) of the whole. Sometimes fractions will be "improper" with a larger numerator than a denominator. Working with the number 4/3 is usually more convenient than using the equivalent "mixed number" which is 1 1/3 -- and where the decimal version is not exact (1.333333...).
