Oh honey, the numerator is the top number in a fraction, like the cherry on top of a sundae. The denominator is the bottom number, holding up the whole fraction like the unsung hero. So, in the fraction 3/4, 3 is the numerator strutting its stuff, while 4 is the denominator doing all the heavy lifting.

The numerator is the number on the top of a fraction, for example, in the fraction 1/2 (one half), the numerator is 1.

The denominator of 1/2 is 2.
