Exploring the Ordering of Fractions
Three fractions are represented as points in the
{Denominator, Numerator} plane. You can set the values
of these fractions by dragging the blue, yellow and green
dots in the left-hand panel.
Explore how the order of the three fractions on a
number line in the right-hand panel is related to the
positions of the blue, yellow and green dots in the
left-hand panel.
