The bottom number tells you what kind of note gets one beat (4 means the quarter note gets 1 beat). The top number tells you the beats per measure.

its its like 2/4 it means two beats in a measure, and the 4 note (quarter note) gets the beat.

...it's not a fraction. it's a time signature. and it's after the clef.
and it represents what note gets the beat.
