simple fractions
Elementary numerical portions
A simple fraction expresses a quantity as one whole number divided by another—a numerator over a denominator: three-fourths, seven-eighths.
The term distinguishes basic fractions from decimal fractions or complex fractions (which have fractions in the numerator or denominator).
Also called common fractions or vulgar fractions.
