Definition--Fraction Concepts--Fraction | FractionTopicFractions DefinitionA fraction represents a part of a whole or a division of a quantity into equal parts. DescriptionFractions are a fundamental concept in mathematics, representing parts of a whole. They are crucial for understanding more advanced mathematical concepts and operations. A fraction consists of two parts: the numerator, which is the number above the line, and the denominator, which is the number below the line. The numerator indicates how many parts are being considered, while the denominator shows the total number of equal parts in the whole. |
