A fraction of a set is one whole group divided equally into smaller groups.
A set means a group of things. A fraction is a whole thing divided into equal pieces.
Here is an example of what a fraction of a set is: I have twenty four beans and my two friends want some. I divided them into three groups. We each have eight beans in total.
A denominator is the number below which shows how many pieces there are. The numerator is the number at the top which shows the size of the fraction.
