Answer:

The word usually depends on how many equal shares there are. Like if there are two equal shares, then word “halves” is used and so on.

Further details:

Dividing circles and rectangles into two, three, or four equal shares, refer to the shares using the words halves, thirds, half of, a third of, etc., and pronounce the whole as two halves, three thirds, four fourths. Be aware of that equal shares of identical wholes need not have the same shape.

Halves:

If a form is divided into two equal shares, the shares can be designated as halves.

One of the shares can be designated as half of the entire shape.

The whole shape can be labeled as two halves.

Thirds:

If a form is divided into three equal shares, the shares can be designated as thirds.

One of the shares can be labeled as a third of the whole shape.

The whole shape can be labeled as three thirds.

Fourths:

If a shape is divided into four equal shares, the shares can be designated as fourths.

One of the shares can be designated as a fourth of the whole shape.

The entire shape can be labeled as four fourths.
