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.
six
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.
There are two halves in one whole, and since one third is one part of a whole divided into three equal sections, you can fit six halves in three thirds. This is because each third contains one and a half halves. Therefore, there are six halves in three thirds.
There are 8 sixths in 1 and 1/3. (One whole and 2 sixths) 1 1/3 = 4/3 4/3 = 8/6
One minus a sixth is five sixths.
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!
One whole
3/6 is the same as 1/2: Three sixths is the same as one half.
Six whole halves. Each whole has two halves making it, 6(wholes)x2(#of halves in whole)= 12. 12 halves in 6 wholes.
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.
There are six sixths in a whole. In terms of numbers, 6/6 = 1.

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.
2 halves make a whole
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.
