		In arithmetic, a vulgar fraction (or common fraction) consists of one integer divided by a non-zero integer.
		Fractions In mathematics, the greatest common divisor (gcd), sometimes known as the greatest common factor (gcf) or highest common factor (hcf), of two non-zero integers, is the largest positive integer that divides both numbers without remainder.
		In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or (partial fraction expansion) is used to reduce the degree of either the numerator or the denominator of a rational function.

	Vulgar fraction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In arithmetic, a vulgar fraction (or common fraction) consists of one integer divided by a non-zero integer.
		All vulgar fractions are rational numbers and, by definition, all rational numbers can be expressed as vulgar fractions, although the representation is not unique.
		Naturally, a fraction which is not a vulgar fraction is one in which either the numerator or the denominator is something other than a simple integer (for instance, a square root expression).

	Talk:Vulgar fraction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The plan for this article is to move most of the current text into an ==arithmetic== section and to bring over from the fraction (mathematics) disambiguation page all the sub-categories of vulgar fraction.
		The author of 'Vulgar Fraction' makes the point that a 'vulgar', or 'common', fraction is one in which the numerator and denominator are integers, as opposed to rationals, irrationals, etc. This is a distinction that needs to be mentioned, but perhaps should not be the title of the entry.
		It could also be pointed out that 'fractions' is the ordinary term for what scientists and mathematicians call 'rational numbers': pairs of integers that provide the ability to break down a whole into fractional parts.

	Vulgar fraction - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The word "numerator" is related to the word "enumerate."To enumerate means to "tell how many"; thus the numerator tells us how many fractional parts we have in the indicated fraction.To denominate means to "give a name" or "tell what kind"; thus the denominator tells us what kind of parts we have (halves, thirds, fourths, etc.).
		If a fraction is greater than or equal to 1—i.e., the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator—then it is also known as an improper fraction.

		To compare two fractions, which have different both numerators and denominators, it is necessary to extend them to reduce to the same denominators.
		If denominators of fractions are the same, then in order to add the fractions it is necessary to add their numerators; in order to subtract the fractions it is necessary to subtract their numerators (in the same order).
		Hence, we have the general rule for multiplication of fractions: to multiply one fraction by another it is necessary to multiply separately their numerators and denominators and to divide the first product by the second.
