How do you find the difference between two fractions?

To find the difference between two fractions, ensure they have a common denominator, then subtract the numerators. For example, $$\frac{3}{4} - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$$ .

What is a proper fraction?

A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is less than the denominator, such as $$\frac{3}{4}$$ .

What is an improper fraction?

An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator, such as $$\frac{5}{4}$$ .

How do you add mixed numbers?

To add mixed numbers, first add the whole numbers, then add the fractions. If the fraction sum is improper, convert it to a mixed number.

What is the relationship between fractions and division?

Fractions represent division; for example, $$\frac{a}{b}$$ means 'a divided by b'.

How do you simplify a fraction?

To simplify a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). For example, $$\frac{4}{8} = \frac{4 \div 4}{8 \div 4} = \frac{1}{2}$$ .

What is a common denominator?

A common denominator is a shared multiple of the denominators of two or more fractions, used to add or subtract them.

How do you convert an improper fraction to a mixed number?
