Fraction Representation
Understanding Fractions
A fraction represents a part of a whole or, more generally, any number of equal parts. It is written in the form numerator/denominator, where the numerator represents the number of parts taken, and the denominator represents the total number of parts the whole is divided into. For example, if a pie is divided into 8 slices and you take 3, you have taken 3/8 of the pie.
- Numerator: The top number in a fraction.
- Denominator: The bottom number in a fraction.
- Proper Fraction: Numerator is less than the denominator (e.g., 1/2, 3/4).
- Improper Fraction: Numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator (e.g., 5/3, 7/7).
Fractions are fundamental in mathematics and are used in everyday life, from cooking and measurements to finance and time. This tool helps visualize proper fractions to build a better intuitive understanding.
