Part A is a fill-in-the-blank section with eight questions covering ideas like 'a shape divided into 2 equal parts is split into halves' and how four equal parts make fourths. Part B follows with five true-or-false statements that check whether students understand that pieces must be equal and that a quarter equals one fourth.
