  1. 1. (b) denominatorThe bottom number is the denominator.
  2. 2. (c) 2/92/9 has numerator less than denominator.
  3. 3. (a) 2/4½ = 2/4.
  4. 4. (d) 3/5Add numerators: (2 + 1)/5 = 3/5.
  5. 5. The denominator is the number of equal parts in the whole; the numerator is how many parts are taken.
  6. 6. Keep the common denominator and add the numerators.
  7. 7. A proper fraction has its numerator smaller than its denominator, so it is less than one — for example ⅗. An improper fraction has its numerator equal to or greater than its denominator, so it is one or more — for example 9/4. A mixed number is written as a whole number together with a proper fraction, such as 2¼, which can be changed to the improper fraction 9/4 by computing 2 × 4 + 1 = 9 over 4. These three forms are simply different ways of writing fractional amounts.
