= = == =__NATHANIEL AND RUSTINE'S UNPROJECT__= LOL, i did this wrong..

We have chosen to do a game, because games are fun. And i made like, a billion pages because it didn't show up. If thats supposed to happen yet, or something has to be accepted =/. But heres background information about FRACTIONS !

A fraction describes a part of a whole when the whole is cut into into equal parts. Fractions can also be parts of a group. For example, if there is a group of fruit: 3 oranges and 4 apples, what fraction of the group are apples? Four sevenths. There are seven parts, and four apples. What is the fraction for the oranges? Three sevenths. They are fractions that are not one whole, it's just a part of the whole..

An **//improper fraction//** is where the numerator/top, is larger than the denominator/bottom. Meaning it is larger than the whole.

How to convert to a //mixed number// :
 * First, see how many times the //numerator goes into// the //denominator//
 * 2nd, take that answer and put it as your //whole.//
 * The //leftover// from the //numerator// is your //new numerator// for the mixed fraction
 * To get the the //denominator,// you just keep the //original// one you had.

An **//equivalent fraction//** are two, or more fractions that equal the same amount. They all take up the same amount of the whole, meaning the parts are equal to each other even if the denominator is different. Heres an example is 1/2 =2/4= 4/8. These fractions all take up HALF of an object.


 * //Common denominator// :** A quantity into which all the denominators of a set of fractions may be divided without a remainder.

To find the Least Common Denominator:
 * You must first find the //greatest common factor// of the denominators
 * Then multiply the denominators together
 * Divide the product of the denominators by the Greatest Common Factor.

EXAMPLE : Find the LCD of 2/9 and 3/12
 * Determine the Greatest Common Factor of 9 and 12 which is 3
 * Either multiply the denominators and divide by the GCF (9x12=108, 108/3=36)
 * OR - Divide one of the denominators by the GCF and multiply the quotient times the other denominator (9/3=3, 3*12=36)


 * //Mixed fraction//** is a fraction with a whole, and a fraction beside it. Example ; **5** 1/2,

How to convert to a //improper fraction// :
 * First, multiply the //whole number// by the //denominator// of the fraction
 * Then, take that answer and //add// the //numerator// to it.
 * The answer you get is the //numerator// of the //improper fraction//
 * To get the denominator, you simply just take the //original denominator// from the fraction.


 * //Proper fractions//** is where the numerator, is smaller than the denominator. Or smaller than the whole.
