What are fractions?
Fractions represent a part of a whole, a number divided in equal parts, or how many parts of a size there are, eg; three quarters
What are Decimals?
Decimals are certain forms we use to use fractions as single numbers. It shows where the fractional part of a number begins.
What are Percentages?

Why are fluids important?
Fluids are important to understand, as they account for transport in nature, artificial made materials, and are within all living organisms. By fluids, we can even tell our health by blood flow.

How do we represent fractions visually and in writing?
Visually: chart model with bars or linear models (number lines)In writing: use dashes/hyphens to separate the numerator and denominator.
How can a decimal be expressed as a fraction? 9/10 as a fraction?
Since decimals are non-integer numbers, place the decimal number over it's place value, as a fraction numerator. eg; 0.9: 9/10

Since percents are ratios, ratios are written as fractions, and fractions are written as decimals. Ans: 3%
Are compressible and incompressible fluids related to viscosity?
Yes. Compressible fluids have low viscosity and density, while incompressible fluids have high viscosity and density.

There were mostly planes, air service, telecommunication, refrigeration, powered farming, radio, etc...
Why are fractions important in general life?
Fractions help us measure objects and quantities precisely, tell the time, and in finance (discounts)
How to compare and order fractions according to their numerical value?
Compare the equivalent fractions by the numerators, and the fraction's greater depending on the numerator, and for ordering, go by ascending to descending or opposite by the larger numerator.
Are fractions related to proportions? And division?proportions: equal ratios
Yes. Proportions can be converted as a percentage by timing the result by 100, and it is to division, since the symbol % means divided by 100. eg; 32%: 32/100: 8/25.
What do you think might happen if cohesion would've been stronger than adhesion?
If the adhesive forces between a liquid and a surface are stronger, they will pull the liquid down, causing it to wet the surface, but if the cohesive forces among the liquid itself are stronger, it'll cause the liquid to take up a spherical shape.
