How do you convert an improper fraction to a mixed number?

What is the process to simplify a fraction?

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, $$\frac{5}{9} - \frac{3}{9} = \frac{2}{9}$$ .

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.
