| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| fraction | A number which consists of a numerator, denominator and a fraction line; tells us how many parts are contained in a whole (razlomak) |
| numerator | A number above the fraction line; represents part (brojnik) |
| denominator | A number below the fraction line; represents whole (nazivnik) |
| Fraction line/bar | razlomačka crta |
| improper fraction | Numerator is greater than denominator (nepravi razlomak) |
| proper fraction | Numerator is less than denominator (pravi razlomak) |
| mixed number | Consists of an integer and a proper fraction (mješoviti broj) |
| reducing (canceling) | Dividing both the numerator and denominator with the same number (skraćivanje) |
| LCD | Least/lowest common/like denominator [lowest number divisible by denominators of all fractions] (najmanji zajednički nazivnik) |
| compound fraction | A fraction whose numerator and/or denominator are fractions (dvojni razlomak) |
| equivalent fractions | Fractions that have the same value (e.g. ½, 2/4, 6/12) |
| reciprocal | Inverted fraction (recipročni razlomak) |
| recurring decimal | Repeating decimal (op. terminating decimal) (e.g. 3 in 0.3333…) |
| „Sig figs“ | Significant figures/digits [digits that contribute to number's precision (značajne znamenke) |
| rounding | approximating (zaokruživanje) |
| ratio | Comparative value of 2 numbers (omjer) |
