1. Introduction to Fractions

2. What is a Fraction?

3. Numerator and Denominator The numerator is the top number in a fraction and shows how many parts you have. The denominator is the bottom number and shows how many parts the whole is divided into.

4. Fraction Example For example, in the fraction 3/4, the numerator is 3 and the denominator is 4. This means you have 3 parts out of 4 total parts.

5. Types of Fractions There are different types of fractions: - Proper Fraction: Numerator < Denominator (e.g., 3/4) - Improper Fraction: Numerator > Denominator (e.g., 5/4) - Mixed Number: A whole number combined with a fraction (e.g., 1 3/4)

6. Conclusion Fractions are a way to represent parts of a whole, and understanding them is essential for math.
