"Ο μαθητής δεν ξέρει το κλάσμα."

Translation: The student does not know the fraction.

[J.N7MH]

Can this also mean "doesn't know fractions."?

[G.Georgopoulos]

No, the Greek sentence refers to a specific fraction.

[MGB8ub]

Thanks for the answer. I'm curious what would be general fraction equivalent, τα κλάσματα then?

[Marva441926]

Can "το κλάσμα" also mean "the break" or "the fracture"?

[G.Georgopoulos]

Break=διάλειμμα (Let's take a break) and σπάσιμο (the noun describing the action of breaking something)

Fracture=κάταγμα

[oldMargy]

why have you marked my answer 'pupil' as wrong?

[Dimitra956826]

It is now accepted. ^.^

Ο μαθητής: Student
Μαθηματικά: Studystud
The word μαθηματικά is a general word, is'nt it? If yes - why do we use it in the meaning "studying numbers"?
Or - do the word μαθ mean a digit?
