Which of the following statement is true

Which of the following statement is true \( ? \)

  • A. Fractions with same numerator are called like fractions
  • B. Fractions with same denominator are called unlike fractions
  • C. Difference of two like fractions = \( \frac{\text {difference of numerators}}{\text {common denominator}} \)
  • D. A fraction with numerator greater than or equal to the denominator is called proper fraction

Step-by-step solution

Like fractions have the same denominator. The difference of two like fractions is computed by subtracting the numerators and keeping the common denominator. Hence, option C is correct. Options A, B, and D are false because like fractions have same denominator, unlike fractions have different denominators, and a proper fraction requires numerator less than denominator.
