7/4 is an improper fraction. The lesser denominator (4) is below the greater numerator (7). Divide the numerator by the denominator to see how many times 4 goes into 7. 7 ÷ 4 = 1 remainder 3

The resulting mixed number is 1 3/4 (one and three over four).

How do you subtract improper fractions with whole numbers?

To subtract an improper fraction from a whole number, turn the whole number into a fraction with the same denominator as the improper fraction. Then minus. All whole numbers actually have a "1" as a denominator, we just don't write it (it's assumed.) E.g 10 = (10/1) 20 = (20/1) etc... to change the denominator to the same as the improper fraction, multiply the whole number (that is now a fraction over "1") by the denominator of the improper fraction. E.g Let the improper fraction be 17/4, and your real number be 20. From above, we know that 20 is the same as "20/1", with "1" as the denominator. You want this "1" to be "4", so multiply the real number by "4/4" (which is essentially multiplying by 1, so doesn't mess up how big the fraction is) 20/1 x 4/4 = 80/4. Now the denominators of both fractions are the same, you can minus the improper fraction from the whole number. i.e 80/4 - 17/4 = 63/4 Which is actually 15 3/4 .

The improper fraction will turn out to be some whole number plus a fraction. That will locate the number between that whole number (without the fraction) and the one following it. 22/7 = 3 and 1/7 and lies between 3 and 4.
