In Maths, we learnt how to use fractions of sets. If you want to find the unit fraction of a set, you must the set by the number of groups. We wrote two examples of halves, thirds, quarters, fifths, sixths and tenths. Here are some examples from my book:
Halves:
Set size: 8 - Fraction: Halves.
8 ÷ 2 = 4
One half of 8 is 4.
Thirds:
Set size: 21 - Fraction: Thirds.
21 ÷ 3 = 7
One third of 21 is 7.
Quarters:
Set size: 44 - Fraction: Quarters.
44 ÷ 4 = 11
One quarter of 44 is 11.
Fifths:
Set size: 100 - Fraction: Fifths.
25 ÷ 5 = 5.
One fifth of 100 is 20.
Tenths:
Set size: 200 - Fraction: Tenths.
200 ÷ 10 = 20.
One tenth of 200 is 20.
