Description: Think about how people discovered fractions and what problem they were meant to solve. How do we take a thing and express its division into smaller equal parts? A lot of little somethings add up to 1... until 2/3 came along. Using a numerator that isn't 1 doesn't sound like much, but it was a massive conceptual leap for humanity. #shorts
