Frequently asked math questions, including decimals and fractions

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

What are simple or reduced fractions?

Simple or reduced fractions are fractions whose top number (numerator) and bottom number (denominator) cannot be any smaller, while still being a whole number. That is to say, the number can no longer be divided by any number other than one while still being a whole number. 1/3 is a good example of a fully reduced fraction.

What are imperial fractions?

Yards, feet, and inches are all part of the Imperial measurement system, so a 1/4 of an inch is described as an imperial fraction.

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 is a ratio?

A ratio is a relationship between two numbers that shows how many times one value is contained within another. For example, the ratio 3:1 means there are 3 parts of one quantity for every 1 part of another.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is an equation that states that two ratios are equal. For example, 1/2 = 2/4 shows a proportional relationship.

What is a terminating decimal?

A terminating decimal is a decimal number that has a finite number of digits after the decimal point. For example, 0.35 and 3.5 are terminating decimals.
