Under it!
a mixed number is a whole number with a fraction, ie. 2 3/4 Adding mixed numbers involves adding the whole numbers, then adding the fractions, then reducing the fraction and if it is improper, changing it to a whole number with a fraction and adding that whole number to the other whole number answer.
A fraction is generally not a whole number, so you can't "make it into a whole" - any whole number would not have the same value. You can round a fraction to the nearest integer, if you like - but note that you would lose some precision if you do so.
The answer can be another fraction and a whole number or it can be a whole number.
You can make any whole number into a fraction by putting it over 1.
It is either a positive or negative proper fraction, 0 or an improper negative fraction.
a fraction cannot be a whole number
To divide a whole number by a fraction, you can rewrite the fraction as a whole number by multiplying the denominator by the whole number. Then, divide the resulting whole number by the numerator of the fraction. This process is equivalent to multiplying the whole number by the reciprocal of the fraction.
1. Write the number. 2. Make a fraction bar under it like this_ 3. Make the denominator (the number under the bar) 1.
When multiplying a fraction by a whole number, you should rewrite the whole number as a fraction. Do this by placing the number over a denominator of one.
The numerator of the fraction is multiplied by the whole number.
A number can be called either a mixed number or a mixed fraction when it is a whole number with a fraction.
Any whole number into a fraction is whole number over 1. Whole number = x Fraction = x/1
