when you flip the numerator and denominator you call it the reciprocal. hope it helped.
you get a completely different fraction
When you wish to divide by a fraction, you would flip the divisor and multiply by the new fraction.
To put fractions into opposite fractions, all you have to do is flip it so that the numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator. This is called a reciprocal. Example: The opposite of 3/5 is 5/3
The top part of the fraction is called the numerator. The bottom part of a fraction is called the denominator. Numerator, as, in 3/4, 3 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator. The top number of a fraction is called a numerator and the bottom is called the denominator.
A fraction has two parts. On the top is the numerator, and on the bottom is the denominator. The line separating them is called the vinculum.

Probably because they they were Greek words

An improper fraction has a numerator greater than the denominator. When the numerator and denominator are equal, that's called "1."

It is the denominator and the top number is the numerator
