Difference between decimal fraction and fraction

The difference between decimal fractions and fractions is that decimal fractions are a form of fractions represented as decimal numbers, where both the numerator and denominator are decimal numbers. In contrast, a fraction in the traditional sense is a whole number divided into parts, with the denominator representing the total number of parts and the numerator representing the number of parts taken.

Also, decimal fractions are a decimal representation based on the number of digits, which allows for easy calculations and comparisons, whereas the traditional fraction form can lead to cumbersome calculations and comparisons.
