A fraction represents a part of a whole. It consists of a numerator (top number) and a denominator (bottom number). For example, in the fraction $$\frac{3}{4}$$ , 3 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator.

What is the least common denominator (LCD)?

The least common denominator is the smallest number that can be used as a common denominator for two or more fractions. For example, the LCD of $$\frac{1}{3}$$ and $$\frac{1}{4}$$ is 12.

How do you add fractions with different denominators?

To add fractions with different denominators, first find the least common denominator (LCD), convert each fraction to an equivalent fraction with the LCD, and then add the numerators. For example, $$\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{4}{12} + \frac{3}{12} = \frac{7}{12}$$ .

What is the difference between a proper fraction and an improper fraction?

A proper fraction has a numerator that is less than the denominator (e.g., $$\frac{2}{5}$$ ), while an improper fraction has a numerator that is greater than or equal to the denominator (e.g., $$\frac{5}{4}$$ ).

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

To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number by the denominator, add the numerator, and place that result over the original denominator. For example, $$2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}$$ .

What is the product of a whole number and a fraction?

To find the product of a whole number and a fraction, multiply the whole number by the numerator of the fraction and keep the same denominator. For example, $$3 \times \frac{2}{5} = \frac{3 \times 2}{5} = \frac{6}{5}$$ .

What is a fraction greater than 1?

A fraction greater than 1 is an improper fraction where the numerator is larger than the denominator, such as $$\frac{5}{3}$$ .

How do you divide fractions?

To divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. For example, $$\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{4}{5} = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{5}{4} = \frac{10}{12} = \frac{5}{6}$$ .
