A fraction represents a part of a whole and consists of a numerator (top number) and a denominator (bottom number). For example, in the fraction $$\frac{3}{4}$$ , 3 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator.

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

To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient is the whole number, and the remainder becomes the new numerator over the original denominator.

What is the result of $$\frac{2}{4} - \frac{3}{8}$$ ?

The result is $$\frac{1}{8}$$ after finding a common denominator and simplifying.

How do you multiply fractions?

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. For example, $$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}$$ after simplification.

What is a common factor?

A common factor is a number that divides two or more numbers without leaving a remainder. For example, the common factors of 8 and 12 are 1, 2, and 4.

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

A proper fraction has a numerator smaller than the denominator (e.g., $$\frac{3}{4}$$ ), while an improper fraction has a numerator larger than or equal to the denominator (e.g., $$\frac{5}{4}$$ ).

How do you simplify a fraction?

To simplify a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF). For example, $$\frac{8}{12}$$ simplifies to $$\frac{2}{3}$$ .

What is the sum of $$\frac{1}{2}$$ and $$\frac{1}{4}$$ ?

The sum is $$\frac{3}{4}$$ after finding a common denominator.

What is the result of $$2\frac{2}{3} \times 3\frac{1}{4}$$ ?

The result is 8 after converting to improper fractions and multiplying.
