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

Our question

Is 1/2 always more than 1/4?

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
  • 1/2 of a small bar and 1/4 of a bar three times as long.
  • Both pieces measured with the same squares.
  • A conclusion must address the Fraction Forge question.
