Question

Determine the numerator and denominator in this fraction: $\frac{2}{7}$

• A. Numerator = 7; Denominator = 2
• B. Numerator = 2; Denominator = 7
• C. Numerator = 14; Denominator = 4
• D. Numerator = 4; Denominator = 14

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Numerator = 2; Denominator = 7

This is the example of proper fraction.
The number above the line in a proper/improper fraction is called the numerator and the number below the line is called the denominator.
Hence, here the numerator 2 is and the denominator is 7.
