What is a Fraction?

A fraction is a mathematical expression that represents a part of a whole. It consists of two numbers: a numerator and a denominator. The numerator represents the number of parts you have, and the denominator indicates the total number of equal parts that make up the whole.

Types of Fractions

Proper Fractions:The numerator is smaller than the denominator (e.g., \( \frac{3}{4} \)).
Improper Fractions: The numerator is equal to or greater than the denominator (e.g., \( \frac{5}{4} \) or \( \frac{4}{4} \)).
Mixed Numbers: A combination of a whole number and a proper fraction (e.g., \( 1 \frac{1}{2} \)).

Basic Fraction Operations and Formulas

Addition: \( \frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{d} = \frac{ad + bc}{bd} \)
Subtraction: \( \frac{a}{b} - \frac{c}{d} = \frac{ad - bc}{bd} \)
Multiplication: \( \frac{a}{b} \times \frac{c}{d} = \frac{ac}{bd} \)
Division: \( \frac{a}{b} \div \frac{c}{d} = \frac{ad}{bc} \)
