Frequently asked math questions, including decimals and fractions

Read the following section to help deepen your understanding of basic math concepts.

What are proper fractions?

Proper fractions are fractions where the numerator (the top number) is less than the denominator (the bottom number). Example ²/₃

What are prime numbers?

Prime numbers are numbers greater than 1 that have only two factors: 1 and themselves. Examples include 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 and so on.

What are rational numbers?

A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the fraction of two integers, such as ³/₄, ^-5/₂, or 0.75.
