                  A fraction is written with two numbers arranged one over the                       Remember

                  other and separated by a horizontal line. The number above  The line that separates
                  the line is called the Numerator and the number below the line              the numerator and
                  is called the Denominator of the fraction.                                  denominator in the
                                                                                              fraction is called 'fraction
                                                                                              bar' or 'vinculum'.

                  examples: (a) In   , numerator = 5, denominator = 7
                                       7

                               (b) In   6   , numerator = 6, denominator = 11

                        In the word 'MATHEMATICS', what fraction of letters are vowels?

                  example:  Write the fraction for the shaded parts.

                       (a)                      (b)                      (c)                      (d)

                  Solution:

                              Number of shaded parts           2                Number of shaded parts          1
                       (a)                                  =            (b)                                  =
                            Total number of equal parts        6             Total number of equal parts        2

                       (c)    Number of shaded parts         =  5        (d)    Number of shaded parts        =  3
                            Total number of equal parts         8            Total number of equal parts        4

                           Think and Answer
                        1.  What fraction of the given triangle represents the shaded parts?
                        2.  What fraction of the given triangle represents the unshaded parts?
