The denominator is the bottom number of a fraction and represents the whole in its entirety.
For example:

The denominator is the bottom number of a fraction and represents the whole in its entirety.
For example:
Write the fraction shown in the diagram as a number:
In this article, you will learn everything you need to know about the denominator and its function in fractions.
The denominator is one of the components of a fraction, therefore, to better understand what the denominator is, let's first talk about fractions.
A fraction is a number that is composed of two numbers:
The upper one which is called the numerator
A fractional line that represents a division
And the lower number which we call the denominator
For example:
The fraction could represent a certain part or even the entirety of a whole.
Write the fraction shown in the diagram as a number:
Write the fraction shown in the drawing, in numbers:
What is the marked part?
The denominator represents the whole itself, that is, the totality of parts or portions there are.
For example, in the fraction
,
The denominator indicates that is the whole, in total there are parts.
Explanatory note as a gift: The in the numerator represents a certain part within the whole parts within , that is, eighths.
Let's see it illustrated:
Discover the fractions whose denominator is :
Solution:
In this fraction, the denominator is –> the number located at the bottom.
In this fraction, the denominator is –> the number located at the bottom.

Write fractions whose denominator is :
Solution:
In the three fractions we wrote, the denominator is . Any fraction you write that has the number as the denominator and any whole number as the numerator will be a correct answer.
What fraction results from dividing 9 by 13?
First, let's write out the division exercise:
Now let's write it as a simple fraction, remembering that the numerator is on top and the denominator is on the bottom:
What fraction results from dividing 2 by 3?
First, let's write the division exercise:
Now let's write it as a simple fraction, remembering that the numerator is on top and the denominator is on the bottom:
What fraction results from dividing 2 by 5?
Firstly, let's write out the division exercise:
Now, let's write it out again as a simple fraction, remembering that the numerator is on top and the denominator is on the bottom:
Solve the following expression:
First, we will divide the numerator and denominator by the highest number that both are divisible by.
In this case, the number is 13.
Then we will divide the fraction as follows:
Solve the following expression:
First we will divide the numerator and denominator by the highest number that both are divisible by.
In this case, the number is 29.
Then we will divide the fraction as follows:
