What fractions make 1 whole?
There are actually infinitely many fractions which can be combined to form one. Some examples are:1/2 + 1/2 = 1 1/3 + 2/3 = 1 1/4 + 3/4 = 1 7/16 + 9/16 = 1 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 = 1. etc. When two fractions add up to one, they may be described as complementary.
What is a base number?
A base number is pretty much the whole number,ex:2 + 2/3 - 4 1/2 the only whole numbers are 2 and 42/3 and 1/2 are fractions!! :D
Are the set of positive fractions closed under division?
Yes, because for any x and y that are positive fractions (y not equal to zero), x/y is also a positive fraction. Note that whole numbers are considered fractions with denominators of 1 -- otherwise it doesn't work.
Are fractions whole numbers?
No. All fractions are not whole numbers, but all whole numbers are [improper] fractions (with a denominator of 1).
What fractions equal 1 whole?
Fractions that multiply to get 1 whole are reciprocals, or multiplicative inverses.
What kind of fractions represent a whole?
Fractions whose denominator is 1.

Is negative 1 a whole number?
Yes it is. All the fractions are NOT whole numbers.
What two fractions equal 2 whole?

1/1 : 2/2 : 55/55 are 3 examples of fractions equivalent to 1 (1 being the whole of the fraction).
Are fractions and decimals numbers that represent parts of a whole?
yes they do and fractions also represent divide like if you had 1/2 you would have half of a whole!
Are all whole numbers fractions?
Yes when they have a denominator of 1
How do you simplify fractions with whole numbers?
By ignoring the whole numbers. 1 and 6/8 = 1 and 3/4
What are some fractions to make 1 whole?
1/2 + 1/3 + 1/6...
How are whole numbers converted to fractions?
Let their denominator be 1. For example, the whole number 45, as a fraction, is 45/1.
