Fractons: Numerators and denominators

Numerators and denominators

Numerators: Denominators:
Numerators are the top numbers Denominators are the bottom numbers
in an fraction. in 3/4, 3 is the in an fraction, in 12/45, 45 is the Denominator
Numerator.

Fractions: Types of fractions.

Fractions can look different, like fractions with Alike denominators, for example 3/6 and 5/6 have alike denominators, the 6 on both fractions are the same number.

Alike denominator fractions:

Fractions can look different, like fractions with Unlike denominators, for example 1/4 and 4/5 have unlike denominators, 4, and 5, arn't the same number.

​Unlike denominator fractions:

The most common way to get an mixed number is by adding fractions, for example: 1/2 + 1/2 = 1, and to get an mixed number......: 1/2 + 1 = 1 1/2. or it could be an improper fraction..: 3/2 + 1/2 = 2

How to get an mixed number

An mixed number has an whole number, then an fraction after, for example: 1 2/4. the 1 calculates how meany wholes ore in the Mixed number. 2/4 is the fraction after, so 1 2/4 is an mixed number.

​Mixed numbers

Fractions: Improper fractions

​What is an improper fraction?

An improper fraction has the Denominator less then the Numerator, for example: 2/1 is an improper fraction. and if you divide it, it works as: 2 divided by 1 = 2. you can convert an Mixed number into an improper fraction, 1 1/2 = 3/2. when converting, you need to add the halves in this case, 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 = 1 1/2, 3/2. the three came from how meany times you need to add the thing, to get to the answer.
