Dialogue: 0,0:00:00.59,0:00:04.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We're asked to identify the\Nnumerator and denominator in
Dialogue: 0,0:00:04.72,0:00:08.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the fraction 3 over 4, or 3/4.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:08.40,0:00:11.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So let's rewrite this just\Nso it's nice and big.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:11.14,0:00:12.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So let me just write\Nthe fraction.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:12.58,0:00:20.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So we have 3 over 4, 3/4.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:20.47,0:00:22.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, they want us to identify\Nthe numerator and the
Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.88,0:00:24.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,denominator.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:25.95,0:00:29.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So the numerator is just the\Nnumber on top, so the
Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.04,0:00:31.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,numerator is the\N3 right there.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:31.60,0:00:34.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then they want us to\Nfind the denominator.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:34.08,0:00:37.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The denominator is just the\Nnumber on the bottom.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:37.16,0:00:38.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's the 4.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:38.05,0:00:39.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So if they say what's\Nthe numerator?
Dialogue: 0,0:00:39.18,0:00:39.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,3.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:39.81,0:00:41.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What's the denominator?
Dialogue: 0,0:00:41.31,0:00:43.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's 4, just the number\Non the bottom.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.22,0:00:44.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They could've just called this\Nthe number on the bottom.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:44.91,0:00:47.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They could've just called\Nthis the number on top.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:47.34,0:00:49.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now to think about what this\Nrepresents, what this fraction
Dialogue: 0,0:00:49.68,0:00:52.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,represents, you can think\Nof it as three out of
Dialogue: 0,0:00:52.60,0:00:54.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,four pieces of a pie.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:54.27,0:00:55.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's how I think about it.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:55.38,0:00:58.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So you can imagine, the\Ndenominator tells us, what are
Dialogue: 0,0:00:58.33,0:01:01.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we taking a fraction out of or\Nhow many pieces are there?
Dialogue: 0,0:01:01.68,0:01:03.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So let's imagine a\Npie like this.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.95,0:01:07.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So we could draw like\Na square pie.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:11.25,0:01:13.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this is what the denominator\Nrepresents.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:13.23,0:01:17.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is what the number on\Nthe bottom represents.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.10,0:01:20.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then 3 says, we are\Nrepresenting three of those
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.51,0:01:21.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,four pieces.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:21.95,0:01:25.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this 3 tells us that out of\N4 possible ones, I guess you
Dialogue: 0,0:01:25.39,0:01:28.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,could think of it, we are using\Nthree, or maybe we're
Dialogue: 0,0:01:28.58,0:01:30.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,eating three.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:30.36,0:01:33.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So you can imagine if someone\Nsays I ate three-fourths of a
Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.20,0:01:35.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pie-- this would be read as\Nthree-fourths-- they're eating
Dialogue: 0,0:01:35.88,0:01:38.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the blue portion of the pie\Nif we cut it this way.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:38.74,0:01:42.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If we imagine a round pie,\Nit would look like this.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:42.38,0:01:43.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Let me draw a round pie.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:43.90,0:01:47.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So that is my round pie.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.19,0:01:50.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Let me cut it into four\Nequal pieces or
Dialogue: 0,0:01:50.40,0:01:52.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,roughly equal pieces.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.32,0:01:58.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And if someone says I ate\Nthree-fourths of this pie,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.03,0:02:01.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where the 3 is the numerator,\Nand then the 4, and you'd read
Dialogue: 0,0:02:01.07,0:02:04.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that as three-fourths, the 4 is\Nthe denominator, they would
Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.65,0:02:06.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,eat this much of the pie.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:06.19,0:02:08.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They would eat 3 of\Nthe 4 pieces.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:12.91,0:02:19.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this is is one piece, this\Nis two pieces, and this is
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.52,0:02:20.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,three pieces.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:20.72,0:02:23.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So you could imagine the 4, the\Ndenominator represents the
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.20,0:02:27.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,total number of pieces in the\Npie, and then the 3 represents
Dialogue: 0,0:02:27.73,0:02:30.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,how many of those we ate.
