    Study Notes

    Fractions and Their Components

    • A fraction is defined as the ratio of two integers or expressions.
    • The numerator is the top part of a fraction, representing the number or term being divided.
    • The denominator is the bottom part of a fraction, which cannot equal zero as this would make the fraction undefined.

    Rational Numbers and Expressions

    • Rational numbers can be expressed as a fraction (a/b), and they are associated with either terminating or repeating decimals.
    • A rational expression is an algebraic expression that includes variables in the denominator.

    Equations and Proportions

    • A rational equation consists of two rational expressions that are set equal to one another.
    • A proportion is established when two ratios are equal, indicating a relationship between the two quantities.

    Exclusion of Certain Values

    • An excluded value refers to a variable value that would cause the denominator of a rational expression to become zero, rendering the expression undefined.
