A fraction can be defined as "the quotient of any two rational numbers". "Quotient" means "two numbers to be divided by each other".

Therefore, any number that can be expressed as x/y is a fraction - whether the result itself is rational ("can be expressed as a fraction") or irrational ("cannot be expressed as a fraction").

Therefore, examples of fractions whose answers are rational include 1/2 (one half), 1/4 (one quarter), or 1/3 (one third).
