Cutting pies and cakes to serve or measuring the ingredients to make them.
To add fractions.
By using the decimal numbers, you are now using the concept of fraction. There are some situation where we can apply the fraction, for example, cooking, medicine, sewing and tailoring :)
A fjord is a real world example of a fjord! They exist in the real world.
An airplane flying in a specific direction at a specific speed.
Operations can model real-world fractions by representing parts of a whole in various contexts. For example, addition can combine fractions to determine the total when sharing quantities, while subtraction can find the remaining part after a portion is taken away. Multiplication can calculate fractions of a quantity, such as finding a quarter of a pizza, and division can help distribute a total into equal fractional parts. These operations make it easier to understand and solve problems involving fractions in everyday situations.

You use fractions for LOTS of things in the real world like money, gambling, shopping, clothing, etc.

Whenever we are dealing with rational fractions.

You use fractions (or some variation, such as decimals) in any situation where whole numbers are not sufficient. For example, when you want to measure the object of a length in meters, and a whole number of meters is not precise enough.
The question presumes that math classes are not part of the real world, which is debatable. The GCF can be used to simplify fractions. Carpenters and chefs use fractions in practical, non-academic settings.
Use the GCF to reduce fractions. Use the LCM to add and subtract unlike fractions. Carpenters work with fractions a lot.
The Equator is a real world example, being the circumference of the Earth.
When adding or subtracting fractions with different denominators and when reducing fractions to their lowest terms.
