- 1CancellationReducing process that is used to simplify the multiplication and division of fractions.
- 2Common DenominatorTo add two or more fractions, denominators must be the same.
- 3DenominatorThe number of a common fraction below the division line (bar). Example 8/9, in which 9 is the denominator.
- 4EquivalentTwo or more fractions equivalent in value.
- 5FractionExpresses a part of a whole number. Example, 5/6 expresses 5 parts out of 6.
- 6Greatest Common DivisorThe largest possible number that will divide evenly into both the numerator and denominator.
- 7Higher TermsExpressing a fraction with a new numerator and denominator that is equivalent to the original.
Example: 2/9 = 6/27 - 8Improper FractionsFraction that has a value equal to or greater than 1; Numerator is equal to or greater than the denominator.
Example: 6/6, 14/9 - 9Least Common Denominator (LCD)Smallest nonzero whole number into which all denominators will divide evenly.
Example: 2/3 and 1/4 LCD =12 - 10Like FractionsProper fractions with the same denominators.
- 11Lowest TermsExpressing a fraction when no number divides evenly into the numerator and denominator except the number 1.
Example 5/10 = 1/2 - 12Mixed NumbersSum of a whole greater than zero and a proper fraction.
Example 2 1/4, 3 3/9 - 13NumeratorNumber of a common fraction above the division line (bar).
Example: 8/9, in which 8 is the numerator. - 14Prime NumbersWhole number greater than 1 that is only divisible by itself and 1.
- 15Proper FractionFractions with a value less than 1;
Numerator is smaller than denominator, such as 5/9 - 16ReciprocalThe interchanging of the numerator and the denominator. Inverted number is the reciprocal.
Example: 6/7, 7/6 - 17Unlike FractionsProper fractions with different denominators.
