What is a fraction?

A fraction is a numerical value that represents a part of a whole. It consists of two numbers separated by a line, where the top number (numerator) represents the part being considered, and the bottom number (denominator) represents the total number of equal parts that make up the whole. Fractions are used to represent values between whole numbers and can be used for various types of mathematical calculations and comparisons.

How do you read and write fractions?

To read a fraction, say the top number (numerator) as a whole number and the bottom number (denominator) as an ordinal number (e.g. ? is read as "two-thirds"). To write a fraction, place the numerator above a horizontal line and the denominator below it (e.g. 1/2). Remember to simplify fractions when possible by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor.

What is the numerator and denominator of a fraction?

The numerator is the top number in a fraction that represents the number of equal parts being considered, while the denominator is the bottom number that represents the total number of equal parts that make up a whole.

How do you identify equivalent fractions?

To identify equivalent fractions, you need to compare the numerator and denominator of the fractions. Equivalent fractions have the same value but are written in a different form. To find equivalent fractions, you can multiply or divide both the numerator and denominator by the same number. For example, 1/2 is equivalent to 2/4 because you can multiply the numerator and denominator of 1/2 by 2 to get 2/4.

How do you simplify a fraction?

To simplify a fraction, you need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator, then divide both numbers by this GCD. This process reduces the fraction to its simplest form. Remember, a fraction is simplified when the numerator and denominator have no common factors other than 1.

How do you compare and order fractions?

To compare and order fractions, first ensure all fractions have the same denominator, then compare their numerators. If denominators are different, find the least common denominator by finding the least common multiple of the denominators. Once all fractions have the same denominator, compare numerators to determine which fraction is larger or smaller. To order fractions, arrange them from smallest to largest or largest to smallest based on the comparison of their numerators.

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

To add or subtract fractions with the same denominator, you simply add or subtract the numerators while keeping the denominator the same. For example, if you have 1/4 + 2/4, you add the numerators (1 + 2 = 3) while keeping the denominator the same (4), resulting in 3/4. Similarly, if you have 5/7 - 2/7, you subtract the numerators (5 - 2 = 3) while keeping the denominator the same (7), resulting in 3/7.

How do you add and subtract fractions with different denominators?

To add or subtract fractions with different denominators, you first need to find a common denominator by determining the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators. Once you have a common denominator, you can convert each fraction to have that denominator. After that, you can add or subtract the numerators of the fractions and keep the common denominator to get the final result. Remember to simplify the fraction if possible by reducing it to its lowest terms.

How do you multiply fractions?

To multiply fractions, you simply multiply the numerators (top numbers) together to get the new numerator, and multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) together to get the new denominator. For example, if you have 1/2 * 3/4, you would multiply 1 * 3 to get 3 as the new numerator, and 2 * 4 to get 8 as the new denominator, resulting in 3/8. Remember to simplify the fraction if possible by finding a common factor between the numerator and denominator.

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 a multiplication sign, and flip the second fraction upside down before multiplying across. Then simplify the resulting fraction if necessary. For example, to divide 1/2 by 1/4, you would do 1/2 * 4/1 = 4/2 = 2.
