The denominator.
A term for a number that has no decimal or fraction is called a whole number.
That is the lowest term. the reason for this is because in a fraction, both the numerator (number on top) and the denominator (number on the bottom) must be complete Integers, or non decimal numbers.
The Improper Fraction is 5/3 . The use of the term 'top heavy' is incorrect; 'Improper' is the correct term for a fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator.
The denominator
Simplifying the fraction.
the term for the bottom number on a fraction is the denominator. The top number is the numerator. Example: in the fraction 2/3, the 2 is the numerator and the 3 is the denominator.
the bottom number is the denominator< while the top is the numeratorThe denominator.
The top number of a fraction is called the numerator. The bottom number of a fraction is called the denominator.
The bottom term of a fraction is known as the denominator.

by higher do you mean converting 1/2 to 2/4? if so multiply the top and bottom number by the same number
That is the lowest term. the reason for this is because in a fraction, both the numerator (number on top) and the denominator (number on the bottom) must be complete Integers, or non decimal numbers.
There is no such term as the nominator. The numerator goes on top and the denominator on the bottom.
Denominator - the bottom number of a fraction. In the term "1/2" or "one-half," the one is the numerator (top number) and the two is the denominator. It is what the top number is divided by. Nothing "does" denominator.
To convert a decimal into a fraction, place a 1 under the decimal number (to represent a fraction), move the decimal point to the right of the decimal number and add as many zeroes to the bottom number as the number of places the decimal was moved on the top number. Reduce the fraction to its lowest term. Conversion of given decimal number: .7 (place a 1 underneath to make a fraction) ,7/1 (move the decimal point to the right of the decimal number and add that many zeroes to the bottom number) 7/10 (this fraction cannot be reduced so it is the answer) Other example: conversion of .375 .375 .375/1 375/1000 (now reduce the fraction t its lowest term) 3/8
It's a number that is NOT a fraction. It can't be zero either. It is also negative. Hope this helps. In more simple terms, an INTEGER is simply a 'whole' number of either positive or negative value but NEVER a fraction. Note the correct spelling of integer. The first contributor to your question is perfectly correct.
