A fraction is a part of a whole, it has a numerator and a denominator. There are many different kinds of fractions such as **proper fractions**, **improper fractions**, **mixed fractions**, and **equivalent fractions**.
 * __What is a fraction?__**
 * //NUMERATOR ://** the top number of the fraction ( part )
 * //DENOMINATOR ://** the bottem number of the fraction ( whole )

media type="custom" key="42795" A proper fraction can be reduced. It could also be added, subtracted, or multiplied.
 * Proper fractions :** When the numerator is less than the denominator.

A improper fraction can be converted into a mixed fraction.
 * Improper fractions :** When the numerator is greater than the denominator

Equivalent fractions can also be reduced, and added, subtracted, or multiplied with eachother.
 * Equivalent fractions :** Two or more different fractions that equal the amount.

A mixed fraction could be converted into an improper fraction. It can also be added, subtracted, or multiplied.
 * Mixed fraction :** A whole number with a proper or improper fraction


 * //COMMON DENOMINATORS ://** Having two or more fractions, and finding equivalents in order to add or subtract. You take the equivalent that you found and you take the original numerator and put them together, to make a fraction.
 * //LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR ://** Having two or more fractions, and finding the lowest equivalent. You then take the equivalent you found and take the original numerator and put them together, to make fraction. Now, its easier to add or subtract.


 * __REMEMBER ..__**

* When multiplying, you do not need to find the common denominators.
1) Multiply the denominator by the whole number 2) Take your answer and add the numerator to get a new numerator 3) Always keep the original denominator 1) Figure out how many times the denominator goes into the numerator 2) Take your answer and subtract it from the numerator from the improper fraction 3) Always keep the original denominator
