The fraction can be described as the part of the whole object. Fraction has the numerator and denominator separated by solidus. The numerator represents the total no of parts taken and the denominator represents how many parts the whole is divided into.<\/p>\n
Based on the numerator and the denominator, fractions<\/a> are divided mainly into three types. They are 1.Proper fraction 2. Improper fraction 3. Mixed Fraction. In this article, we will mainly discuss the proper fraction and improper fraction.<\/p>\n In a Proper fraction, the numerator is smaller than the denominator. Examples of the proper fraction are \\(\\frac { 2 }{ 5 } \\), \\(\\frac {8 }{ 15 } \\), \\(\\frac { 5 }{ 8 } \\) etc. In an improper fraction, the numerator is greater than the denominator.Examples of an improper fraction are\u00a0 \\(\\frac { 8 }{ 3 }\\), \\(\\frac { 9 }{ 5 } \\),\\(\\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \\),\\(\\frac { 15 }{ 4 } \\),etc. Example: 1.

\nThe numerators are 2,8,5 and the denominators are 5, 15, 8.
\nHere the numerators 2,8,5 are less than the denominators 5, 15, 8.
\nFurther simplification of the value of the proper fraction is always less than one and greater than zero.<\/p>\nImproper Fraction<\/h3>\n
\nThe numerators are 8,9,3,15 and the denominators are 3,5,2,4. Here the numerators 8,9,3,15 are greater than the denominators 3,5,2,4 etc.
\nFurther simplification of the improper fraction gives the value equal to 1 and greater than one but not less than one.
\nBy adding one or more whole numbers and one proper fraction we get an Improper fraction.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>1+ \\(\\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\\) =5\/3
\n1+\\(\\frac { 2 }{ 7 }\\)=9\/7
