I have a question because i completely forgot about this lesson from last year. how do you even convert mixed numbers into improper fractions pls just one example and pls do it with a clear solution. (10 pts. guys)

Sagot :

for example:

we are going to convert 5 and 1/2 to improper, we are going to multiply the mixed number which is 5 to the denominator which is 2, wherein it is eaqual to 10 so 10 will be added to the numwrator which is 1 so the answer would be 11/2.


hope i helped
First, the definitions:
Mixed number - is a combination of whole number and fraction, taken as one term.

Improper fraction - is a fraction where numerator is greater than denominator.

Example of a mixed number:

[tex]4 \frac{3}{5} [/tex]

To convert the [tex]4 \frac{3}{5} [/tex] to improper fraction:
1)  Multiply the whole number by the denominator
     (4) (5) = 20

2)  Add the numerator to the product of the whole number and denominator.  The result is the numerator of the improper fraction.
    20 + 3 = 23

3)  Re-write as improper fraction with the same denominator.
    [tex] \frac{23}{5} [/tex]
