Emek and Luna followed a treasure map to a pirate picnic. They found two round treasure cakes. Emek cut the first cake into 2 equal parts. Each part was one half. Luna cut the second cake into 4 equal parts. Each part was one quarter. They checked that every piece from the same cake was the same size. Now the explorers could share the cakes fairly and enjoy their treasure picnic.

Hint
Think about the name for one of 2 equal parts.
Emek cut the first treasure cake into 2 equal parts. What is each part called?

Next🎉 Congrats! You got this question!
Hint
A whole divided into quarters has the same number of pieces as the number in the word quarter means here.
Luna cut the second treasure cake into quarters. How many equal pieces did she make?
Correct! The cake was divided into 4 equal pieces.
Try again. Quarters are made by dividing a whole into 4 equal pieces.
Next🎉 Congrats! You got this question!
Hint
Compare cutting the same-size cake into 2 equal pieces with cutting it into 4 equal pieces.
Emek has one half of the first cake. Luna has one quarter of the second cake. The cakes were the same size before cutting. Which piece is larger?
one quarterThey are the same sizeone halfThere is no cake leftCorrect! One half is larger than one quarter when the wholes are the same size.
Try again. Fewer equal pieces make each piece larger.
