What is a fraction?

A fraction is a numerical quantity that represents a part of a whole, expressed as one integer divided by another integer. Fractions consist of a numerator (the top number) and a denominator (the bottom number), with the numerator indicating how many parts are taken out of the whole divided into the number of parts denoted by the denominator.

How do you represent a fraction using numbers?

A fraction is represented using two numbers separated by a horizontal line, known as the fraction bar. The number on the top of the fraction is called the numerator, while the number on the bottom is called the denominator. For example, the fraction 3/4 represents three parts out of four equal parts.

How do you find the numerator and denominator of a fraction?

To find the numerator and denominator of a fraction, look at the number before and after the fraction bar, respectively. The numerator is the top number in a fraction, representing the number of parts being considered, while the denominator is the bottom number indicating the total number of equal parts into which the whole is divided.

What is a proper fraction?

A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator, indicating that the value of the fraction is less than one. In other words, the fraction represents a portion of a whole that is smaller than one whole unit.

What is an improper fraction?

An improper fraction is a fraction in which the numerator (the top number) is greater than or equal to the denominator (the bottom number). This means that the fraction represents a value greater than one.

How do you convert an improper fraction to a mixed number?

To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, you divide the numerator by the denominator. The whole number in the quotient becomes the whole number part of the mixed number, and the remainder becomes the new numerator while the denominator remains the same. So for example, if you have the improper fraction 7/3, you would divide 7 by 3 to get 2 with a remainder of 1, thus the mixed number would be 2 1/3.

How do you convert a mixed number to an improper fraction?

To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, you multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction and then add the numerator. This sum becomes the new numerator, while the denominator remains the same. For example, if you have the mixed number 3 1/4, you would multiply 3 (the whole number) by 4 (the denominator) to get 12, then add 1 (the numerator) to get 13. Therefore, 3 1/4 as an improper fraction is 13/4.

What is a equivalent fraction?

An equivalent fraction is a fraction that represents the same value or quantity as another fraction, but is expressed in a different form. This is achieved by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and the denominator of a fraction by the same non-zero number.

How do you add fractions with the same denominator?

To add fractions with the same denominator, simply add the numerators together and keep the denominator the same. For example, if you have 1/4 + 3/4, you would add the numerators (1 + 3 = 4) and keep the denominator the same (4). So, 1/4 + 3/4 = 4/4, which simplifies to 1.

How do you subtract fractions with the same denominator?

To subtract fractions with the same denominator, you simply subtract the numerators while keeping the denominator the same. For example, to subtract 1/4 from 3/4, you would subtract 1 from 3 to get 2, and keep the denominator as 4, resulting in the answer 2/4 or simplifying it to 1/2.
