① This example visually demonstrates improper fractions (where the numerator is greater than the denominator) and their magnitude, helping learners understand the conversion between improper fractions and mixed numbers. ② Core mathematical concepts include fractions, improper fractions, mixed numbers, decomposition into integer and proper fractional parts, and representation on a number line. ③ Construction highlights: Uses GeoGebra commands such as If, Sequence, Div, Mod, lt, and LaTeX to generate fraction sequences and integer parts, with objects including k, A, b, a, r, p1, frs, nmbs, db, p2, p3, secs, c, a1, a2, b2, si, la, d, text2, e1a, e1b, e1c, e2a, e2c, text3, numbers, and text1, enabling dynamic visualization. ④ Suitable for upper elementary to middle school students learning fraction concepts, and useful for classroom demonstrations or self-exploration of fraction properties.

  1. If(a > 12, 14 / (a + 2), 1) → r
  2. Sequence(A + (((1.2 * r) * (i - (k * Mod[i - 1, b]) - ((k * (b - 1)) * Div[i - 1, b]))), 0), i, 1, a) → p1
  3. Sequence(Rotate[Translate[Element[p1, i], Vector[(0, r / 2)]], 3.141592653589793 / b + (((2 * 3.141592653589793) * k) * Mod[i - 1, b] / b), Element[p1, i]], i, 1, a) → p2
  4. Sequence(Rotate[Translate[Element[p1, i], Vector[(0, r / 2)]], ((-3.141592653589793)) / b + (((2 * 3.141592653589793) * k) * Mod[i - 1, b] / b), Element[p1, i]], i, 1, a) → p3
