What is a numerater and denomerator?
The numerator is the top number in a fraction. (2 in 2/8) The denominator is the bottom number in a fraction. (5 in 3/5)
How do you put a fraction into a demical?
To convert a fraction into a decimal number, divide the numerator (top number) of the fraction by the denominator (lower number) and add the decimal. Ex: 3/8 = 3 ÷ 8 = .375
How do you make the denominator the same?
To make the denominator of two fractions the same, you multiply numerator and denominator of one fraction of the fractions by the same number. You may also have to multiply numerator of the other fraction by a different number.For example, to add 1/8 + 1/10, you have to convert to a common denominator; the lowest common denominator is 40, but any common denominator will work (for example, 80 which is simply the product of the two).To convert 1/8 to a fraction with a denominator of 40, multiply numerator and denominator by 5. To convert 1/10, multiply numerator and denominator by 4. The result is:5/40 + 4/40To make the denominator of two fractions the same, you multiply numerator and denominator of one fraction of the fractions by the same number. You may also have to multiply numerator of the other fraction by a different number.For example, to add 1/8 + 1/10, you have to convert to a common denominator; the lowest common denominator is 40, but any common denominator will work (for example, 80 which is simply the product of the two).To convert 1/8 to a fraction with a denominator of 40, multiply numerator and denominator by 5. To convert 1/10, multiply numerator and denominator by 4. The result is:5/40 + 4/40To make the denominator of two fractions the same, you multiply numerator and denominator of one fraction of the fractions by the same number.

To convert 1/10, multiply numerator and denominator by 4. The result is:5/40 + 4/40
Is 24 over 27 and 16 over 18 proportional?
Yes, and they are the same fraction when reduced 24/27 = 8/9 ( divide numerator and denominator by 3) 16/18 = 8/9 ( divide numerator and denominator by 2)
How do you write a fraction in simplest form?
You look for common factors between the numerator and denominator, and divide both by the factor. For example, in the fraction 6/12, both numerator and denominator are divisible by 2, so you simply this to 3/6. Since both are divisible by 3, this can be further simplified to 1/2. Or, you divide numerator and denominator in the original fraction by 6 in the first place.
