Remember we want to make sure that everyone gets an equal amount.Step 3- Once you are done  partitioning the pizza, then you will give everyone their FAIR SHARE! Step 4- Enjoy!

Hey there Mr. Baker,

Oreo, chocolate chip brownie here. I heard you needed some help making a fair share. Read carefully. If you skip a step, things could go terribly wrong.

Step 1: You must decide how many people would like to share with. let's just say 8 to be safe.

Step 2: First, use a measuring tape to find the half-way point, vertically.

Step 3: Use a big, sharp knife to cut through the delicious layers at the half way mark. When finished there should be two equal shares.

Step 4: Measure with the tape to find the half-way point horizontally.

Step 5: Once again, you'll need the big, sharp knife to cut straight down at the half-way mark. Please, try not to hurt me. There should be four equal shares now. Each equal share represents a fourth.

Step 6: You should be getting the hang of things now. You'll need that big, sharp knife once again. But, be gentle. You need to find the half-way mark of each fourth and cut vertically down at that half-way  mark. Once repeated four times. You should now have eighths, or eight equal parts.

Step 7: Share all the gooey goodness!

hey baker, it is me, gooey yummerson!
I have noticed that everytime that lady comes in to buy brownies you get all goofy.
I am pretty sure you love her. So here is how you can get her:
1. pour 1/2 of the brownie batter into the whole size pan.
2. now add 1/4 chocolate chips
3. bake them!
4. now add 1/4 heart shaped candy pieces on top of the brownies.
She will fall in love right away and you will get the WHOLE girl!!!
love,
gooey

Dear Baker,Hello my name is Choco and I am a pan of brownies. I know people just love to dive into me before I am cool and then I crumble and my pieces don't end up being fair for all so I want to give you some directions so that I can be shared equally and fairly. 1. Let me cool. 2. Cut me vertically in the middle down along the longest side of the pan. 3. Take each of those long pieces and make a vertical cut in the middle of each of them. You should now have 4 equal pieces that are long and skinny. 4. Rotate the pan 45 degrees and now cut the pan vertially in half. 5. Cut each of those halves in half vertically. You should now have 16 equal size pieces which is a fair share. Thank you,Sincerely, Choco

Dear Fractions of the world,

We have heard your pleas and 1/2 and I, 2/4, are happy to explain how we are soulmates!!  It's simple really!  When you look at me, 2/4, you see that I am two 1/4 pieces.  Those two 1/4 pieces are equal to my true love 1/2!!  If you break a whole into two parts and shade one of break a whole into four parts and shade two, you will see how 1/2 and I are beautifully equal.  We are called equivalent fractions!!  There is one out there for everyone!  Just double your parts and you will find your true love!!

Love your equivalent relationship gurus,

1/2 & 2/4

I have been searching all of my days(all of my days)
This fraction that would make me whole(all of my days)
And there seems to be none. Only fractions that make me less than one.

I see clearly it you I'm looking for (all of my days)
I smile and realize I will feel this loneliness no more(all of my days)
And I look aro7nd me. And its 3/4 that found me.
And its just so fun. To find the fraction that makes me one.

Do you want to simplify yourself? Well now you can shed those unwanted numbers by finding your equivalent, simplified self. Simply find a common factor for both your numerator and denominator and divide by that form of 1 (2/2, 3/3, 4/4, etc). But wait, you can also shed those unwanted numbers another way. Simply draw yourself as an area model, make equal groups with your pieces, and rewrite yourself in simplest form. Act now before you miss this once in a lifetime opportunity!

Oh this is the one(fourth), this is the one(fourth)to make me whole.

You are the missing piece, now that I have you I am complete.
