Usages

GenSimpleFraction[ n ]

GenSimpleFraction[ n ] returns a list of n fractions between 0 and 1, with a denominator from 2 to 11. The fractions are simplified, so 2/4 appears as 1/2. In a script, wrap the command in Simplify. Each time the exercise is generated, new fractions are chosen, so the outputs below are only examples.

Example in out
Three simple fractions. Simplify[ GenSimpleFraction[3] ] for example {2/3, 6/7, 1/2}
With n = 1, the result is still a list. Simplify[ GenSimpleFraction[1] ] for example {7/8}
Details
  • Without Simplify, the command is not calculated.
  • Duplicates: the same fraction can occur more than once in the list.
  • n must be a positive integer: Simplify[ GenSimpleFraction[0] ] is not calculated.
