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 is the new numerator over the original denominator. For example, $$\frac{9}{4} = 2 \frac{1}{4}$$ .

What is the process to simplify a fraction?

To simplify a fraction, divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF). For example, $$\frac{8}{12} = \frac{8 \div 4}{12 \div 4} = \frac{2}{3}$$ .

What does it mean to find the difference of two fractions?

Finding the difference of two fractions means subtracting one fraction from another. For example, $$\frac{5}{9} - \frac{3}{9} = \frac{2}{9}$$ .

What is a common numerator?

A common numerator is a numerator that is the same for two or more fractions. For example, in $$\frac{2}{5}$$ and $$\frac{2}{7}$$ , the numerator 2 is common.

How do you check if two fractions are equivalent?

To check if two fractions are equivalent, cross-multiply and see if the products are equal. For example, to check if $$\frac{1}{2}$$ and $$\frac{2}{4}$$ are equivalent, check if $$1 \times 4 = 2 \times 2$$ , which is true.

What is the importance of understanding fractions?

Understanding fractions is important because they are used in everyday life, such as in cooking, measuring, and financial calculations. They also form the basis for more advanced math concepts.

How do you represent fractions on a number line?

To represent fractions on a number line, divide the segment between 0 and 1 into equal parts based on the denominator, and then count the parts to find the position of the numerator. For example, $$\frac{3}{4}$$ is three parts away from 0 in a segment divided into four equal parts.
