Module 1.1 Review of Basic Concepts of Fractions

This presentation distinguishes between different types of fractions: A fraction represents a whole number divided into equal parts and can be written as a quotient with a numerator over a denominator. Equivalent fractions have different numerators and denominators but represent the same value, while similar fractions have the same denominator. Proper fractions are less than one with a numerator smaller than the denominator, in contrast to improper fractions or mixed numbers which combine a whole number with a proper fraction.
