Answer 2

Answer:

C) Proper fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of denominator, it indicates, that the value of numerator is more than the value of denominator.

Example:   $\frac{5^{2} }{5^{3} } =\frac{25}{125}$ $\\=>\frac{1}{5}$

This indicates that the value of numerator is more than the value of denominator, which is the definition of 'Proper fraction'.

Thus we can conclude that 'A fraction in which the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of denominator is called as proper fraction'. which corresponds to option C) Proper fraction.
