Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Example 1: Changing the whole number 5 into a fraction.
Take the whole number (5), add a line below it (/), then add a 1 to the denominator.
5 = 5/1
Example 2: Changing the whole number 5 into a fraction.
Take the whole number (5), multiply it by 2 add a line below it (/), then add a 2 to the denominator.
5 = (5*2)/2 = 10/2
***This can be reduced to 5/1***
Example 3: Changing the whole number 5 into a fraction.
Take the whole number (5), multiply it by 3 add a line below it (/), then add a 3 to the denominator.
5 = (5*3)/3 = 15/3
***This can also be reduced to 5/1***
If you follow the pattern, you will realize all whole numbers are fractions already.
They are fractions with a denominator of 1. This fraction can be manipulated with all of the same standard rules you would traditionally use with fractions, even when the denominator isn’t shown.
A fraction is simply a way to describe portions of a whole. The denominator simply tells you how many pieces to break the whole into. When the denominator is 1, you are breaking the whole into one piece (or not breaking it apart at all.
