Description

This image is a variation of the previous one, now showing visual models for 10/10 and 10/9. It displays rectangular visual representations: one divided into 10 parts with all 10 parts shaded, and another pair of rectangles divided into 9 parts with 10 parts shaded.

This representation helps students understand that improper fractions include fractions equal to one whole (like 10/10) as well as those greater than one whole (like 10/9). It reinforces the concept that improper fractions have numerators greater than or equal to their denominators.

Teachers can use this image to discuss the boundary between proper and improper fractions, explore fractions equal to one, and further develop understanding of fractions greater than one.

Teacher's Script: "Here we have models for 10/10 and 10/9. What's different about these two fractions? 10/10 fills the whole shape exactly, while 10/9 goes a bit beyond. Are both of these improper fractions? Why or why not? How would you express 10/9 as a mixed number?"
