About This Activity

Maya decoded fractional measurements etched onto the Parthenon's marble columns.

Teacher Tip

Have students imagine Maya dividing ancient Greek offerings — olive oil, grain, or marble tiles — into equal shares among temple priests. Ask them to label each fraction's NUMERATOR and DENOMINATOR, then practice dividing fractions by flipping the DIVISOR into its RECIPROCAL, just as Greek architects flipped ratios to design perfectly proportioned columns.

Vocabulary Words
NUMERATORThe top number of a fraction, showing how many pieces you have.
DENOMINATORThe bottom number of a fraction, showing total equal pieces something is split into.
QUOTIENTThe answer you get after one number is divided by another number.
DIVIDENDThe number being divided into equal groups during a division problem.
DIVISORThe number that splits the dividend into equal groups or shares.
RECIPROCALA flipped fraction where the top and bottom numbers switch places.
RATIOA comparison of two amounts showing how much of one exists per another.
PARTITIONTo divide a whole into equal sections, like splitting a marble temple floor.
