/Tanishka and the Secret of In-Between Numbers

$Tanishka loved baking chocolate chip cookies, counting each one as it came out of the oven. One afternoon, while looking at a recipe for a new cake, she frowned. "It says I need one and a half cups of flour and 0.75 cups of sugar," she said, feeling puzzled. She could count one cookie or two cookies, but what was "one and a half"? Frustrated, she turned to her dad and asked, "Why do I need to learn about fractions and decimals when I can already count everything using whole numbers?"$
