The numerator is the top of the fraction and the denominator is the bottom of the fraction, so for example if 4/5 is the fraction, then the numerator would be 4 and the denominator would be 5.


Hope this is what you were looking for!!!

Step-by-step explanation: The top number of a fraction is called the numerator and the bottom number of a fraction is called the denominator.

Let's look at the fraction 8/11.

The numerator would be the top number or 8 and the denominator would be the bottom number or 11.
