Glossary of Terms

Denominator: The denominator is the number onthe bottom of a fraction. 4 is the

denominator in the fraction 14

.

Equivalent Fractions: Two fractions of the same valueare equivalent.

Fraction: A fraction is a way to show part ofa whole number. A fraction hastwo parts: the numerator and thedenominator.

numerator (top)denominator (bottom)

Numerator: The numerator is the number ontop. 1 is the numerator in the

fraction 14

Numerator and Denominator

The numerator is the top number. The numerator answers the questionsHow many equal parts are left? or How many equal parts are being used?

The denominator is the bottom number. The denominator answers thequestion How many equal parts was it divided into?

Therefore, 23

means two equal pieces are left or two equal pieces are used,

but the item had been divided into three equal parts.

Here are three equal parts, and two parts are coloured grey. Therefore, 23

of

the parts are grey.

Equivalent Fractions

Equivalent fractions are fractions that have the same value.

Example: James and Bertha each had a chocolate bar.

James ate 1

2 of his bar.

Bertha ate 4

8 of her bar.

You can see from looking at what is left of each chocolate bar that they each

ate the same amount. This is because 1

2 and

4

8 are equivalent

fractions.

Example: Martha and Herbert are painting wood panels for walls in newhouses.

Amount Martha has done 1216

Herbert has completed 3

4

From looking at the amount of each panel that has been completed, youcan ‘see’ that the amount of painting is the same for each person.

So, 1216

and 3

4 are the same amount, so they are equivalent fractions.

Changing a Fraction to its Simplest Form

Look at the following diagrams

a. b.

Both shaded areas are the same size. We know that 4

6 is the same as

2

3, or we can say that

4

6 and

2

3 are equivalent fractions.

Simplest Terms

Many times we can simplify a fraction and express it in its simplest terms.

We do this by finding numbers that will divide into both the numerator

and the denominator. With 4

6, we know that 2 will divide evenly into both

the numerator and denominator. 4 2 2

6 2 3÷ =

We can say that 2

3 is the simplest form of

4

6.

Example 3:

How many 12ths are equivalent to 23

?

Here you are being asked to to find an equivalent fraction. The question

could be 2 ?

=3 12

Step One - Find the number that the denominator (3) must be multipliedby to make the result of 12

2× =12

3 4 You must multiply 3 by 4 to get 12.

Step Two - After you find the number, use it to multiply the numerator.

2 4 8× =

3 4 12 Then multiply the numerator by 4. The result is

812

So, we know that 2 8

. Therefore, these are equivalent fractions.
