Well, honey, that top part of a fraction is called the numerator. It's the number that tells you how many parts of the whole you're dealing with. So next time you see a fraction, just remember the numerator is the boss of the top!

The top part of a fraction is called the numerator. It represents the number of parts being considered or counted. The numerator is written above the fraction bar in a fraction and is typically the first number in the fraction notation.

The top part of a fraction is the numerator; the bottom part is the denominator.
