FRACTION REVIEW

Business Math Study Guide 2 Page 1 FRACTION REVIEW A. INTRODUCTION 1. What is a FRACTION ? A FRACTION consists of a numerator ( part ) on top of a denominator (total) separated by a horizontal line. For example, the FRACTION of the circle which is shaded is: 2 (parts shaded) 4 (total parts) In the square on the right, the FRACTION shaded is 83 and the FRACTION unshaded is 85 FRACTION = numerator denominator 2. Equivalent fractions Multiplying The three circles on the right each have equal parts shaded, yet are represented by different but equal fractions . These fractions , because they are equal, are called equivalent fractions . Any FRACTION can be changed into an equivalent FRACTION by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by the same number 21 = 42 or 21 84 so 844221 Similarly 95 = 1810 or 95 = 2715 so 95 = 1810 = 2715 You can see from the above examples that each FRACTION has an infinite number of fractions that are equivalent to it.
