Answer:
Fractions are the terms used to determine the parts of a whole object.
E.g. A pizza is divided into 4 pieces, so each piece of it is represented as th of the pizza. Here 1 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator.
There are 6 types of fractions such as:
- Proper fraction
- Improper fraction
- Mixed fraction
- Like fractions
- Unlike fractions
- Equivalent fractions
Proper Fraction
A fraction where the numerator is less than the denominator.
i.e., Numerator < Denominator
Improper Fraction
A fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator.
i.e., Numerator > Denominator
Mixed Fraction
A mixed fraction is the combination of a natural number and fraction. It is basically an improper fraction.
Like Fractions
The fractions which have the same denominators.
Unlike Fractions
The fractions which have unequal denominators or different denominators.
Equivalent Fractions
Two or more fractions when having the same result after simplification for which they represent the same portion of the whole, such fractions are equal to each other.
