numerator
The number above the line is the numerator. The number below the line is the denominator.

It is a fraction if the number below the line is not zero. If the ABSOLUTE value of the number above the line is smaller than the ABSOLUTE value of the number below the line then it is a proper fraction. Otherwise it is an improper fraction.So, -7 is smaller than 2 but -7/2 is not a proper fraction because the absolute value of -7 (which is 7) is not smaller than the absolute value of 2 (= 2).
If it is a number that also has a number below the line, it is a fraction. A fraction is a number where the top number is divided by the bottom number. For example, 3/4 is 3 divided by 4, which in decimal form is .75, or 75/100 in fraction form.
The numerator in a fraction is above the line.

numerator
The number above the line in a fraction is called the numerator. The number below the line is called the denominator. So in the fraction 5/7 5 is the numerator and 7 is the denominator.
The number above the line.
The number above the line is the numerator. The number below the line is the denominator.
Numerator
A fraction is in its simplest form when the numerator (number above the line) and denominator (number below the line) have no factor in common - other than 1.
It is a fraction if the number below the line is not zero. If the ABSOLUTE value of the number above the line is smaller than the ABSOLUTE value of the number below the line then it is a proper fraction. Otherwise it is an improper fraction.So, -7 is smaller than 2 but -7/2 is not a proper fraction because the absolute value of -7 (which is 7) is not smaller than the absolute value of 2 (= 2).
The top number which represents how many parts of a whole.
You draw a short horizontal line segment on your paper, then write a number above the line and another number below it.
It is the numerator and below the line is the denominator
