Fractions of Quantities
- If you are finding the fraction of a given number, the important rule to remember is that you must divide by the denominator, and multiply by the numerator.
- If the numerator is one ( ) then all you need to do is the division.
Example 1 :
Let’s say that we need to find of 54.
We need to divide the value by the denominator first.
54 ÷ 9 = 6
Since the numerator is one, 6 is our answer.
Example 2 :
Let’s try a slightly harder question – we’ll find of £77.
- First, we must divide by the denominator.
77 ÷ 7 = 11 (this is of our value)
- Next, we have to multiply by the numerator.
11 x 4 = 44
Therefore, of £77 is £44.
