G2 FRACTIONS

Filled Fractions of Shapes #3

Expressions that show the equal parts of a whole and can be written as a/b are called fractions.

While showing fractions, a fraction line is drawn in the middle, the numerator above the line and the denominator below it.

The denominator shows how many equal parts a whole is divided into, and the numerator shows how many of these parts are taken.

⇒⇒⇒ A number divided by zero is undefined. Since you cannot divide a whole into zero parts, the denominator cannot be zero.
