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 product of a fraction and a whole number?

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

How do you find the area of a rectangle using fractions?

To find the area of a rectangle with fractional dimensions, multiply the fractions representing the length and width. For example, if Length = $$\frac{1}{2}$$ and Width = $$\frac{3}{4}$$ , then Area = $$\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{8}$$ .

What is a common denominator?

A common denominator is a shared multiple of the denominators of two or more fractions. It is used to add or subtract fractions. For example, for $$\frac{1}{3}$$ and $$\frac{1}{4}$$ , the common denominator is 12.

How do you add fractions with different denominators?

To add fractions with different denominators, first find a common denominator, convert the fractions, 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 area of a playground that is $$\frac{5}{20}$$ of a rectangle with an area of 20 square units?

To find the area, multiply the fraction by the total area: $$\frac{5}{20} \times 20 = 5$$ square units.

What is the area of Cherry Park if it is $$\frac{2}{6}$$ of a rectangle with an area of 12 square units?
