Question

fractions and its kinds. explain each fraction with the help of 4 examples​

Answer 1

Answer:

Fractions represent equal parts of a whole or a collection. Fraction of a whole: When we divide a whole into equal parts, each part is a fraction of the whole. For example, Fraction of a collection: Fractions also represent parts of a set or collection.

There are in total six types of fractions such as:

*Proper fraction -fraction where the numerator is less than the denominator, then it is known as a proper fraction.

i.e., Numerator < Denominator

For example,

3/5

*Improper Fraction

A fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator, then it is known as an improper fraction.

i.e., Numerator > Denominator

For example,9/5

*Mixed Fraction

A mixed fraction is the combination of a natural number and fraction. It is basically an improper fraction.

example- 3whole 3/4

*Like Fractions

The fractions which have the same denominators are called like fractions.

For example 1/2, 3/2, 5/2, 7/2 are like fractions.

*Unlike Fractions

The fractions which have unequal denominators or different denominators are called, unlike fractions.

For example 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, are unlike fractions.

Equivalent Fractions

When two or more fractions have the same result after simplification for which they represent the same portion of the whole, then such fractions are equal to each other and are called equivalent fractions.

For example, 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent.
