What are fractions?

Fractions are numbers that represent parts of a whole. They consist of a numerator (the top number) that shows how many parts are being considered and a denominator (the bottom number) that shows how many equal parts the whole is divided into. Fractions are used to represent quantities that are not whole numbers and can be used in various mathematical operations.

How do you represent a fraction using a numerator and denominator?

To represent a fraction using a numerator and denominator, you write the numerator (the top number) above the division line, and the denominator (the bottom number) below the line. For example, in the fraction 3/4, 3 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator. This notation shows the relationship between the parts of a whole in the fraction.

How do you simplify a fraction?

To simplify a fraction, you need to find the greatest common divisor of the numerator and denominator, and then divide both the numerator and denominator by that common divisor. This reduces the fraction to its simplest form where the numerator and denominator have no common factors other than 1.

How do you find the lowest common denominator for two fractions?

To find the lowest common denominator for two fractions, you need to determine the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators of the two fractions. Once you have the LCM, that number will be the lowest common denominator for the fractions. You can find the LCM by listing the multiples of each denominator and then identifying the smallest number that appears in both lists. That number will be the lowest common denominator for the fractions.

How do you add two fractions with the same denominator?

To add two fractions with the same denominator, you simply add the numerators together and keep the denominator the same. For example, if you have 1/4 + 3/4, you add 1+3 to get 4, and keep the denominator 4 to get 4/4, which simplifies to 1.

How do you subtract two fractions with the same denominator?

To subtract two fractions with the same denominator, you simply subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same. For example, if you have 3/5 - 1/5, you would subtract 1 from 3 to get 2, and keep the denominator as 5. Therefore, the answer would be 2/5.

How do you multiply two fractions?

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

How do you divide two fractions?

To divide two fractions, you multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. This means you keep the first fraction as it is, and change the division sign to multiplication, then flip the second fraction (invert it) to its reciprocal form before multiplying across. The result is the quotient of the two fractions.

How do you convert a fraction into a decimal?

To convert a fraction into a decimal, you should divide the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number). The result of this division is the decimal equivalent of the fraction. You can use a calculator or perform long division to simplify the fraction and obtain its decimal representation.

How do you convert a fraction into a percentage?

To convert a fraction into a percentage, you need to divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number) and then multiply the result by 100. The resulting number is the fraction converted into a percentage. For example, if you have the fraction 3/4, you would divide 3 by 4 to get 0.75, and then multiply 0.75 by 100 to convert it to 75%.
