The denominator of a fraction represents the total number of equal parts into which a whole is divided. It indicates the number of equal parts the whole is divided into and is located below the fraction bar. For example, in the fraction 3/5, the denominator is 5, representing the total number of equal parts in the whole.
If you are given the "the total radiation" (e.g. 100 rads of radiation) and you are given another radiation level (e.g. 75 rads of radiation) and then you are asked: 'What is "the fraction of the total radiation?"', then you would answer "75/100".
The bottom number.
The fraction seen was 440/800.
It is the denominator of the original fraction. If the fraction has been simplified you have no way to get back to the total.
Multiply the whole nomber of total points by the fraction.
How many parts of the total you have in the fraction.
In the original fraction it is the denominator but if the fraction has been simplified you are out of luck. There is no way to recover the value of the total (nor the parts) from a simplified fraction.

cross multiply and the fraction with the largest total is a greater fraction
mass fraction of Substance A = (mass of Sub. A) / (total mass)
The carbon concentration of an iron-carbon alloy for which the fraction of total ferrite is 0.94 is 0.06. Since the fraction of ferrite in the alloy is 94/100, the fraction of carbon must be 6/100 to make a total of 100/100.
Vacation pay is generally taxed as regular income by the government. When you receive vacation pay, it is added to your total income for the year and taxed accordingly.
