What Are Equal Parts?
Equal parts mean pieces that are exactly the same size!
When we divide something into equal parts, each piece should be just as big as the others. This is how
we share things fairly with our friends and family.
How to Make Equal Parts
1️⃣ Look at what you want to share
2️⃣ Divide it carefully into same-sized pieces
3️⃣ Check that all pieces are equal
