A fraction represents a part of a whole and is written using a numerator and a denominator. The numerator is the number above the fraction line, while the denominator is the number below it. For example, in 3/4, 3 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator.
Fractions with the same denominator can be added by adding their numerators while keeping the denominator unchanged. For fractions with different denominators, first convert them to equivalent fractions with a common denominator.
To subtract fractions, use a common denominator and subtract the numerators. The resulting fraction can then be simplified when possible.
Multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together. For example, 2/3 × 3/4 = 6/12, which simplifies to 1/2.
To divide by a fraction, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. For example, dividing by 2/3 is equivalent to multiplying by 3/2.
