One day the fraction ruler called 10/7 held a party and invited all the fractions in his territory.
He chose 3/5 and ¼ to be in charge.
of course 3/5 invited her friends 2/5 and 4/5. 2/5 brought her husband 6/5 with her. 3/5 brought her husband 7/5 and her son 1/5. ¼ came with her family 5/4, ¾ and 7/4.
All the fractions invited were having a great time and they enjoyed the food especially the pizza. • Until they were asked to answer some questions:
