What is the line in a fraction called?
A) Numerator
B) Denominator
C) Fractional bar
D) Whole number
Correct Answer:
C) Fractional bar
Explanation:
The line that separates the numerator (the top number) and the denominator (the bottom number) in a fraction is called the “fractional bar” or “fraction bar.” It is used to represent the division between the two numbers and indicates that the fraction represents a part of a whole. Options A and B refer to the numerator and denominator themselves, while option D represents a whole number, which may or may not be present in a fraction.
