By factoring the numerator and denominator in a fraction, you can then divide common multiples out and reduce the fraction to the simplest terms. Perhaps an example might be of help.
If we have 66/99, we can see that 66 = 2 x 3 x 11, and 99 = 3 x 3 x 11. We can divide the 3 and the 11 out of both the numerator and denominator, and have 2/3 as the answer. The 66/99 = 2/3. Factoring the numerator and denominator allow us to see what we can divide out to reduce the fraction.
A rational fraction.
All fractions with integer numerator and non-zero integer denominator are rational, and conversely.
In a fraction, the numerator represent the part out of the denominator which represents the total. Neither need be rational (or even real).
A rational number can be written as a fraction, with integers in the numerator and the denominator.
Any fraction, whether proper or improper is, by definition, a rational number. A rational number is one which can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, in other words a fraction. It does not matter whether the fraction is proper (numerator lesser than denominator) or improper (numerator geater than denominator).
You will get a rational fraction.
Anything where the numerator and the denominator are the same value.
When the denominator is a factor of the numerator. If there is 2x in the numerator and denominator these terms cancel.
A rational number is simply a number that can be expressed as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator. Such a number can be positive, negative, or zero.A rational number is simply a number that can be expressed as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.

A rational fraction.
A proper fraction.
an improper fraction
Proper fraction - A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (the top number) is less that the denominator (the bottom number). Proportion - An equation stating that two ratios are equivalent is called a proportion.
It has a numerator at the top It has a denominator at the bottom It has a solidus line that separates the numerator from the denominator It is a rational number It can be a proper fraction It can be an improper fraction It can have an equivalent fraction It can be converted into a percentage It can be converted into a decimal
All fractions with integer numerator and non-zero integer denominator are rational, and conversely.
If you divide a rational expression by another rational expression, you will again get a rational expression.
Being rational or irrational is not about "predicting the next digit"; the definition of a rational number is that you can write it as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.Being rational or irrational is not about "predicting the next digit"; the definition of a rational number is that you can write it as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.Being rational or irrational is not about "predicting the next digit"; the definition of a rational number is that you can write it as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.Being rational or irrational is not about "predicting the next digit"; the definition of a rational number is that you can write it as a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.
