What is fraction?
3 answers
A fraction is a number that represents a part of a whole or a ratio of two numbers. It is written with a numerator (top number) over a denominator (bottom number), separated by a horizontal line. For example, 1/2 represents one-half of a whole or the ratio of one to two. Fractions can also be expressed as decimals or percentages.
a number over a line with a number under neath refering to halfs of stuff and quarts is what fraction is in my terms
It sounds like you are referring to a fraction that represents a quantity in terms of halfs and quarts. This fraction would be expressed as a whole number (representing the number of quarts) over a denominator of 4 (to represent the number of quarters in a quart), such as "3/4" for three-quarters of a quart. In this case, the numerator refers to the number of quarts and the denominator represents the number of quarters in each quart.
