ABSTRACT
The denominator indicates the number of equal-sized pieces into which the entire entity has been cut, and the numerator indicates how many pieces we have.
In solving fractions, the following key points are important:
1. Fractions are used to express a portion of a whole. 2. A fraction consists of two numbers separated by a horizontal line or a diag-
onal line (for example, 1/6). 3. The bottom number, the denominator, indicates the number of equal-sized
pieces the whole entity has been cut into. 4. The top number, the numerator, indicates how many pieces we have. 5. Like all other math functions, how we deal with fractions is governed by
rules or principles.
