They are the same as ordinary fraction except that there are two parts: a real part and an imaginary part.

What is the difference between a complex fraction and a regular fraction?
"Regular" fractions have integers for the numerator and denominator. Complex fractions have fractions at one or both of those spots.
How do you enter complex fractions on ti inspire?
You can enter complex fractions on a TI-Inspire calculator, even though there is not a fraction button. Since a fraction bar essentially means to divide, so the division button is a fraction bar.
How can you simplify a complex fraction?
Multiply top and bottom by the complex conjugate of the bottom complex number; this will make the bottom complex number into a real number which can then be made into fractions and simplified with the real part and the imaginary part (the multiplier of i [√-1]) of the multiplied out top number.
What are the characteristics of Whole Numbers?
Whole numbers are also known as integers because they have no fractions or decimals attached to them
What is a vulgar fraction?
A fraction written with an integer numerator placed over a (nonzero) integer denominator is called a vulgar fraction. Vulgar fractions are also known as common fractions or simple fractions. Examples are 2/5 and 7/3. In those examples, the numerators are 2 and 7, the denominators are 5 and 3, all of which are integers. Simple/common/vulgar fractions are distinguished from compound fractions, from complex fractions, from mixed numerals, from decimal fractions, and from irrational fractions. Examples of fractions that are not common fractions are: * 0.75 -- decimal fraction * (3/4) / 2 -- complex fraction * (3/4) / (2/3) -- complex fraction * (1 1/2) / 2 -- complex fraction with mixed numeral in numerator * 3/4 of 5/7 -- compound fraction * 75% --- which equals 75/100, but written as a percent, it has neither a numerator nor a denominator * pi/4 -- irrational fraction. The distinction between common fractions and fractions that are not common is NOT the same as the distinction between proper fractions and improper fractions (which is explained below, but which is not needed to understand what a common fraction is). Common fractions can be either proper or improper. ------ If the absolute value of the numerator (the number on top) is less than the absolute value of the denominator (the number on the bottom) the fraction is called a PROPER fraction.. Examples are 2/3 and and -2/5. If the absolute value of the numerator is greater than the absolute value of the denominator (the number on the bottom) the fraction is called IMPROPER. Examples are 3/2 and and -5/2. Improper fractions can be converted to a mixed numeral, that is, an integer plus a fraction. For example 7/3 is equal to 2 1/3.
How can complex fractions be multiplied?
complex fractions can be multiplied when you have two fractions multiplied and equal a whole number.
What are complex fractions?
They could be fractions in which the numerator or the denominator, or both, are complex numbers.
What is the difference between a complex fraction and a regular fraction?
"Regular" fractions have integers for the numerator and denominator. Complex fractions have fractions at one or both of those spots.
What are the components of a complex fraction?
To be called a complex fraction, either the numerator, the denominator, or both, are fractions (or contain fractions).
What are characteristics for integers?
not fractions or decimals
In mathematics what can be complex mixed or vulgar?
fractions
They may be complex vulgar or mixed what are they?
They are fractions.
What are the characteristics of improper fractions?
Improper fractions have numerators that are greater than or equal to their denominators.
What the characteristics of rational numbers?
They can be expressed as fractions
What are characteristics of like fractions?
They have the same denominators
What is simple fraction?
A simple fraction is a fraction that is a whole number divided by a whole number. Complex fractions can have fractions inside of fractions.
What is the definition of complex fractions?
A complex fraction is one in which the numerator, denominator, or both contain a fraction.
