What is a fraction?

A fraction is a numerical quantity that represents a part of a whole or a ratio of two quantities, written in the form of a numerator divided by a denominator. The numerator represents the part being considered, while the denominator indicates the total number of equal parts the whole is divided into. Fractions can be used to represent quantities that are not whole numbers, providing a way to express values in between whole numbers.

How can you represent a fraction visually?

You can represent a fraction visually by drawing a line, dividing it into equal parts, and then shading in the corresponding number of those parts to represent the numerator of the fraction. The denominator tells you how many parts the whole has been divided into. The shaded parts represent the numerator out of the total number of parts in the whole, providing a clear visual representation of the fraction.

What is the numerator in a fraction?

The numerator in a fraction is the top number that represents the number of parts being considered or counted.

What is the denominator in a fraction?

The denominator in a fraction is the bottom number that represents the total number of equal parts into which a whole is divided.

What is the difference between a proper fraction and an improper fraction?

A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (top number) is less than the denominator (bottom number), meaning the value of the fraction is less than 1. On the other hand, an improper fraction is when the numerator is equal to or greater than the denominator, resulting in a value equal to or greater than 1.

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 3/5 + 2/5, you would add the numerators (3 + 2 = 5) and keep the denominator (5) the same, resulting in 5/5, which simplifies to 1.

How do you subtract fractions with the same denominator?

To subtract fractions with the same denominator, simply subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same. For example, if you have 3/5 - 1/5, since both fractions have a denominator of 5, you can subtract the numerators to get 2/5 as the answer. Just remember to only subtract the numerators and keep the denominator unchanged.

How do you multiply fractions?

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together to get the new numerator, and multiply the denominators together to get the new denominator. Simplify the resulting fraction if needed by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor.

How do you divide fractions?

To divide fractions, you 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 upside down before multiplying across the numerators and denominators to simplify the resulting fraction.

How do you simplify a fraction?

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