Correct Answer
A. False
Explanation
The given statement says that if the numerator is 4 and the denominator is 5, the fraction is 5/4. However, this is incorrect. In a fraction, the numerator represents the number of equal parts being considered, and the denominator represents the total number of equal parts in the whole. Therefore, if the numerator is 4 and the denominator is 5, the correct fraction would be 4/5, not 5/4.
