A fraction is a relationship between parts and the whole. The top number (numerator) represents the individual parts and the bottom number (denominator) represents the whole thing (total number of parts).
Any whole number, like 2 for example, as a fraction is simply that number over 1. So the whole number 2 would be the fraction 2 over 1, and would be written as 2/1.

A fraction is a way to represent a ratio of two numbers.
The fraction of 2? Probably you mean 2=2/1, which corresponds to the ratio 2:1.
The definition on MathWorld is imperfect, since a fraction does not need to be a rational number, eg. pi/e is a fraction too.
Arguably, it would be reasonable to call the ratio of any two elements within the same field a fraction, or even more generally: any set such that every non-zero element has a multiplicative inverse (at least on one side). But this is an unimportant point.

a fraction of a number is a representation of a percentage. For example 50% of the number 2 is 1. Or you could say 1/2 which equals 50%

A fraction is a part of something all the way up to all of it. Parts can be very small or larger.
cut 2 up into as many parts as you like. You can write it as math. Cut a 2 into 2 parts. Write it like this: 2/2 each part would be a 1. Cut a 2 into 4 parts. Write it like this 2/4 each part would be a half.
;-D Got it?

fraction is like how many pieces of cake u have eaten from a whole!!! confused??? ill explain!!!
in fractions u tell tht how much part do u have from a whole. for example!!
u have a chocolate cake and u cut it into 12 equal pieces .. u ate 4 pieces out of it!! so the fraction of the cake eaten by u 4/12 and the wheen we put it into its simpliest form so its 1/3 .. so that means u have eaten 1/3 ofthe cake!!!
