What is combining ability?
the combining power of a atom is, as i understand given by the group number. if the group number is 1-4 then the combining power is the group number. if group number is 5-8 then the combining power is 8 minus the group number. i.e: the group number of magnesium is 2 so the combining power is 2. the group number of oxygen is 6 so the combining power is 8-6=2.

The bottom number of a fraction tells you what?
The bottom number of a fraction is called the denominator and tells you into how many parts the whole has been divided. For example in 1/4, the denominator is 4 and tells you that there are 4 parts into which the whole has been divided. The top number is called the numerator and tells you how many parts (of the bottom number) there are. For example in 3/4 the numerator is 3 and tells you that there are 3 of the 4 parts into which the whole has been divided.
