TMN3704 Assignment 4 2025
Unique Number:
Due date: 14 August 2025
ACTIVITY 1
1.1
A common fraction is a numerical expression that represents a part of a whole. It consists of
two integers – a numerator (top number) and a denominator (bottom number) – written in the
form a/b, where b ≠ 0.
1.2
Numerator: This is the top number in a fraction. It tells how many parts of the whole
are being considered. For example, in the fraction ¾, the numerator is 3, meaning
three parts are taken.
Denominator: This is the bottom number in a fraction. It shows the total number of
equal parts the whole is divided into. In ¾, the denominator is 4, meaning the whole is
divided into four equal parts.
