What is a FRACTION?

A fraction is a number
that can be written as the
quotient of two whole
numbers.
The NUMERATOR tells how many
parts are taken from the whole.

The DENOMINATOR tells how many

equal parts the whole is divided into.

The FRACTION BAR separates the

numerator from the denominator.
