Shapes that can be divided into two equal parts are called "symmetrical" or "mirror image" shapes. When a shape can be divided into two equal halves that perfectly match each other, it is said to have reflectional symmetry. Examples of such shapes include squares, rectangles, circles, and triangles, as they can be divided into two equal parts along a line of symmetry.

A number that describes a part of a set of a part of a whole that is divided into parts is called a fraction. The numerator shows a number of equal parts. The denominator shows how many parts make a whole.
The number of equal parts in a whole depends on how the whole is divided. If the whole is divided into halves, there are 2 equal parts. If divided into thirds, there are 3 equal parts, and so on. In general, the number of equal parts in a whole is determined by the denominator of the fraction used to represent the parts.
