Fractions:

• A fraction represents the part of a whole.
• The number above the bar is called NUMERATOR and the number below the bar is called

\[\operatorname{ex}:\frac{3}{4}\]

• To get equivalent fractions for a given fraction multiply its numerator and denominator by the same number.
• Fractions having equal denominators are called LIKE fractions.
• Fractions with unequal denominators are called UNLIKE fractions.
• If two fractions have the same denominator, then the fraction with greater numerator is greater fraction.

• If two fractions have the same numerator, then the fraction with smaller denominator is greater fraction.

\[\operatorname{Ex}:\frac{5}{9}>\frac{5}{11}\]

• Sum of fractions having same denominator

\[=\frac{Sum\text{ }of\text{ }Numerators}{Denominator}\]

• Difference between two fractions having same denominator

\[=~\frac{Difference between Numerators}{Denominator}\]
