Resumo: Answers of 60 fifth graders to literal and relative versions ofproblems on fractions revealed a strong tendency to identify thenumerator as denoting literally the number of marked elements and thedenominator as denoting the total number of elements (literal version). Onthe whole students did not accept as valid descriptors of a fraction n/mfigures which did not include, literally, n marked elements in a total of m,even when the relationship between number of marked elements and totalnumber of elements was the same as that in n and m (relative version).Findings are discussed in terms of the concept of relative magnitude.

Em geral os alunos não aceitavam como válidas figuras que não preenchiam estes critérios, mesmo quando as figuras representavam frações equivalentes (versão relativa). Os resultados são discutidos em termo do conceito de magnitude relativa.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2012-08-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17124Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 8 No. 1: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 67-78Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 8 Núm. 1: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 67-78Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 8 No. 1: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 67-78Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 8 n. 1: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 67-781806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
