The purpose of this study is to examine the predictors of mathematics achievement in deaf and hearing college students. More specifically, this study was (1) to investigate the possible associations among cognitive skills, fractional knowledge, and mathematics achievement in both hearing and deaf students groups; and (2) to determine whether mathematics achievement can be better predicted by fractional knowledge among college students. This study indicated that fractional knowledge is a strong predictor of mathematics achievement in both hearing and deaf students.
