Answer:

In words: "Five divided by eleven" or as a numerical expression 5 รท 11

Explanation:

Any fraction can be considered a division problem the top number (numerator) is divided by the bottom number (denominator).

If you put it into a calculator, you often get a long string of numbers after a decimal point. It may be easier to leave it as a fraction.

Another way to think of a fraction is how many things do you have: that's the numerator, and how many people get to share it-- the denominator. The fraction tells the amount of each person's share.

The denominator tells the size of the pieces-- in reverse! The larger the number, the smaller the piece!
