What is a fraction?

A fraction is a numerical quantity that represents a part of a whole, expressed as one number (the numerator) divided by another number (the denominator) with a line between them. Fractions are used to represent values that are not whole numbers, breaking down a whole into smaller parts or portions.

How do you represent a fraction using numbers?

A fraction is represented using two numbers separated by a horizontal line: the number on top is called the numerator and the number on the bottom is called the denominator. For example, in the fraction 3/4, 3 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator.

What is the difference between a numerator and a denominator?

The numerator is the top number in a fraction that represents the part being considered, while the denominator is the bottom number that represents the total number of parts in a whole. In simpler terms, the numerator tells you how many parts you have, while the denominator tells you how many parts make up a whole.

How do you add or subtract fractions with the same denominator?

To add or subtract fractions with the same denominator, you simply add or subtract the numerators, and keep the denominator the same. For example, if you have 1/4 + 2/4, you add the numerators (1+2 = 3) to get 3/4. Similarly, if you have 5/6 - 3/6, you subtract the numerators (5-3 = 2) to get 2/6. Remember to simplify the fraction if possible by reducing it to its lowest terms.

How do you add or subtract fractions with different denominators?

To add or subtract fractions with different denominators, you first need to find a common denominator. To do this, you can either find the least common multiple of the denominators or multiply the denominators together. Once you have a common denominator, you can then add or subtract the numerators of the fractions and keep the common denominator. Finally, simplify the fraction if possible by reducing it to its simplest form.

What is equivalent fractions?

Equivalent fractions are fractions that have the same value but are written in different forms. They have different numerators and denominators, but when simplified, they represent the same portion of a whole.

How do you multiply a fraction by a whole number?

To multiply a fraction by a whole number, you can simply multiply the numerator of the fraction by the whole number, and keep the denominator the same. For example, if you have the fraction 1/2 and want to multiply it by 3, you would calculate 1 (numerator) x 3 / 2 (denominator), which equals 3/2 or 1 1/2. So, the result of multiplying a fraction by a whole number is a new fraction with the same denominator and a numerator that is the product of the whole number and the original numerator.

How do you multiply fractions together?

To multiply fractions together, you simply multiply the numerators (the top numbers) to get a new numerator, and then multiply the denominators (the bottom numbers) to get a new denominator. This will give you the product of the two fractions in its simplest form.

How do you divide a fraction by a whole number?

To divide a fraction by a whole number, you can convert the whole number into a fraction by putting it over 1. Then you multiply the fraction by the reciprocal of the whole number in order to divide. For example, if you want to divide 3/4 by 5, you can change 5 to 5/1 and then multiply 3/4 by 1/5 to get the result.

How do you divide fractions?

To divide fractions, you simply multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. This means you keep the first fraction the same, change the division sign to multiplication, and flip the second fraction. Then, you multiply the numerators together and the denominators together to get the result in its simplest form if needed.
