The '''numerator''' is the top number in a [[fraction]].  It is divided by the [[denominator]] when converting the fraction to [[decimal]] form.  In 2/3, the numerator is 2.  In 1/4, the numerator is 1. The numerator is calculated when the fraction is in lowest terms, so the numerator of 4/8 is 1, even though the digit 1 appears nowhere in the fraction.
