This is a simulation, not a quiz. You answer by trying things and watching what happens.

Our question

How does the size of one piece change as the number of pieces grows?

Getting the simulation ready…

  1. 1Build or change something
  2. 2Say what will happen, then run it
  3. 3Finish: say what you found
What counts as evidence
  • Unit fractions lined up on bars of the same length.
  • The fewer the pieces, the longer each piece.
  • A conclusion must address the Fraction Forge question.
