When were fractions discovered?
Historically, any number that did not represent a whole was called a "fraction". The numbers that we now call "decimals" were originally called "decimal fractions"; the numbers we now call "fractions" were called "vulgar fractions", the word "vulgar" meaning "commonplace". The word is also used in related expressions, such as continued fraction and algebraic fraction-see Special cases below.
What are The Whole Number Followed By A Fraction?
Mixed numbers, sometimes called mixed fractions.
What is fraction in which the numerator is smaller than the denominator is called?
These fractions are called proper fractions.
What is A fraction where the numerator denominator or both are also fractions is called?
It is called a complex fraction.
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).
Numbers that can be written as a fraction are called?
They are called rational numbers that can be expressed as fractions
Fraction that are the same amount or equal are called?
They are called equivalent fractions.

What is a number that can be expressed as a fraction called?
It is a rational number whereas irrational numbers can't be expressed as fractions.

These fractions are called proper fractions.

It is called a complex fraction.

To be called a complex fraction, either the numerator, the denominator, or both, are fractions (or contain fractions).
What are Fractions with the same denominator are called?
I think it's called just a normal fraction.
What is a flipped fraction called?
When the numbers within a fraction are reversed, this is called a reciprocal. A reciprocal is useful when dividing fractions - dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.For example, 4 / 2/3 = 4 x 3/2 = 6.
Are positive numbers whole numbers?
No. Positive numbers can be whole numbers but they can also be decimal numbers and fractions. If a value is a whole number, it does not have a fraction or decimal part and it is not negative. Whole numbers are also called natural numbers or counting numbers.
What are numbers called in between whole numbers?
Fractions.
