How do you explain to change a mixed number to an improper fraction and how to change an improper fraction to a mixed number?

mixed # into an improper fraction: multiply the whole number by the denominator(bottom number ont he fraction) then add that number to the numberator(the top number of the fraction. and that's it! improper fraction into a mised number: divide the numberator by the denominator. whatever WHOLE number you get is your number, now for the fraction. whatever you got as the remander when you divided but that on top of the fration. ex 47/5. 5 goes into 47 9 times with a remander of 2. that equals 9 and 2/5.

What is a fraction in which the numerator is larger than the denominator?

Its an improper fraction...which looks like this: 3/2 or 8/3 or 5/2 and many many more :) The way you turn an improper fraction into a mixed fraction (mixed number) is by seeing how many times the denominator goes into the nuerator the number you get is your whole then the remainder is your numerator and the denominator from the improper fraction will be the same denominator in your mixed fraction(mixed number is the same thing as mixed fraction) EXAMPLE: 3/2 2 goes into 2 once so thats my whole: 1 then 1 is left over because 2x1=2 so thats my new numerator then the denominator stays the same so your mixed fraction(mixed number) is 1 1/2

What happens if you have a mixed number how do you make it a reciprocal?

A mixed number is simply a whole number and a fraction. The value of a mixed number would be the whole number added to the fraction. To find its reciprocal: _______________________________________________________________ 1. You need to make the mixed number into a improper fraction. To do this, take the denominator times the number in front. Then add the result to the numerator. Then the improper fraction is that result over the denominator. A mixed number is formatted as a leading number and a fraction. If X is the leading number, D is the denominator, N is the numerator: X and N/D=(X*D+N)/D _______________________________________________________________ 2. Then take this new fraction and flip the numerator and the denominator: D/(X*D+N) _______________________________________________________________ So to get the reciprocal of a mixed number in one step, the reciprocal's: numerator is equal to the denominator of the mixed number; denominator is equal to the leading number multiplied by the denominator added to the numerator: D/(X*D+N)
