The line between the numerator and the denominator of a fraction is the the solidus line
You write the two numbers, with a colon in between, for example: 8 : 6 This can be treated as a fraction; it can also be written as a fraction. Specifically, the ratio can be simplified (or expanded) the same way you simplify a fraction; in this case, you can divide both numbers by 2 to get: 4 : 3
To get a number (fraction or otherwise) that is exactly in the middle between two other numbers, take their average. That is, add the two numbers, and divide the result by 2.
A vulgar fraction is a common fraction which is written as one integer (whole) number over another integer with a line between the two, for example 3/4.The line separating the two numbers can be sloping (as above) or horizontal, as in:3-4but this latter form is not always easy to display and use on a computer (especially here).
