A pizza is a great model for a fraction. Let's describe this pizza as a fraction.

We have 4 slices of the pizza

But with slices of this size, it would take 6 slices to make a whole pizza

And that's all a fraction is. How many parts you have, compared to how many parts of that size you would need to make a whole.

So we have 4 out of 6 parts of a whole pizza. Which is 4 sixths of a pizza.
