Manny used 8 tenth-size parts to model 8/10. Ana used fewer parts to model an equivalent fraction. How does the size of a part in Ana's model compare to the size of a tenth-size part? Explain.



Answer :

Philosopheze
it should be bigger, think of a pie:
if you cut it into 2 parts, the pieces are big
if you cut it into 4 parts, the pieces are smaller

in both parts, the AMOUNT OF PIE stays the same, the size changes

here, we cut out 8 / 10 pieces, (manny)
ana has the same WHOLE amount, but in BIGGER pieces because she has an amount less than 8.

It works if you REDUCE THE FRACTION, 8/10 can be REDUCED to 4/5, Ana's pieces should be twice as big as Manny's, but she only has 4
