Every fraction is obtained by means of division. For example, a half is obtained by dividing 1 by 2. A quarter is obtained by dividing 1 by 4.

A:

That's what a fraction is, dividing. Example, if you put 6 over 2, all you are saying is 6 divided by 2. Each are 3.

Or, if you say 1 over 2, you are saying 1 divided by 2. If you divide one into two parts, each part would be a half, because half of one is one half.
