    Fraction Types

    • Proper Fraction: The numerator is less than the denominator (e.g., 3/4).
    • Improper Fraction: The numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator (e.g., 5/4 or 4/4).
    • Mixed Number: A combination of a whole number and a proper fraction (e.g., 2 1/4).

    Rational Numbers

    • Defined as any number that can be expressed in the form a/b, where both a and b are integers, and b is not zero.

    Fundamental Law of Fractions

    • States that multiplying both the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same non-zero number does not change its value. For example, a/b = ac/bc, based on the principle that c/c equals 1.

    Reciprocals

    • The reciprocal of a non-zero number x is represented as 1/x, known as its multiplicative inverse.
