denominator

the bottom is known as the 'denominator' and states what number of parts the numerator is being divided into. For example:

1/4

Here, 4 is the denominator and 1 (the numerator).

Hence 1 is being divided into 4 'parts', or .25

That's why a dollar divided into 4 parts equals a quarter, or 25 cents
