10 1/4 = 41/4 because there are 40 fourths in 10
41/4 = 123/12 because 12 divided by 4 is 3.
Then, just multiply the top (numerator) and the bottom (denominator) by 3, which keeps the ratio (fraction) equivalent.
Remember, a fraction is just a division problem.
You can check your answer on any calculator:
10 1/4 = 10.25
41 division button 4 = 10.25
123 division button 12 = 10.25

How do you make improper fractions into the simplest form?
Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
How do you make a proper fraction an improper fraction?
Improper fractions are those for which the numerator (top number) is larger than the denominator (bottom number). When they are changed to proper fractions, they are actually mixed numbers (a whole number and a fraction). In order to convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number and the denominator, then add the numerator. Then, put you answer over the denominator of the fraction. For example: 5 3/8 5 times 8 equals 40, 40 plus 3 is 43. 43 becomes the numerator and 8 is still the denominator. 5 3/8 equals 43/8.
What does the denominator in an improper fraction tell you?
It tells you the numberneeded to make one.
How do you deal with improper fractions?
You need to learn how to convert from improper fractions to mixed fractions and vice versa; however, for most other operations, such as compare, add, subtract, multiply, and divide them, it really doesn't make much difference whether the fraction is proper or improper.
How do you add fractions step by step?
you make fractions equivalent denominators, you add the numerators and put it over the denominator
How do you add mixed fractions with different denominators?
You make it into a improper fraction, then make a common denominator and remember to do what you did to the bottom to the top then solve
How do you make improper fractions mixed numbers?
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The answer is the whole number. Put any remainder over the original denominator to create the fraction part.
What is eight and one third minus three and one fourth?
Find the common denominator then make it into improper faction and subtract
How do you make improper fractions into the simplest form?
Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
How do you make a mixed number out of fractions?
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The answer is the whole number. Put any remainder over the original denominator to create the fraction part.
How do you subtract mixed number from mixed numbers with dissimilar fraction?
Make them into improper fractions, find the least common denominator, convert them, subtract, reduce if possible.
Do you make same denominator when adding fractions?
Yes you make same denominator
How do you subtract fractions from whole numbers?
turn the whole number into an inproper fraction by doing this: multiply it by the denominator of the fraction.that answer is your numerator make the fractions denominator the whole number's denominator.then subtract just the numerators.you should have an improper fraction as your final answer, so turn that into a mixed number.
Would you find the reciprocal of two improper fractions?
If the fraction is already improper, then all that is needed is to make the numerator the denominator and make the denominator the numerator. Using the property of multiplicative reciprocals, any number times its reciprocal must equal 1. With fractions, in multiplication the numerator and denominator between the reciprocals any which way (den. of 1st and num. of 2nd, or den. of 2nd and num. of 1st) can cancel out. 7/16-->16/7 65/8-->8/65
How do you make improper fractions to mixed fractions?
you have to reduce it.reduce means to get smaller
How can you tell if a fraction is greater than another fraction?
make them improper fractions and convert them to have the lowest common denominator. At that point you can just directly compare the numerators to see which is larger.
How do you make a proper fraction an improper fraction?
Improper fractions are those for which the numerator (top number) is larger than the denominator (bottom number).
