Can an irrational number be a decimal if so give an example?

How do you put improper fraction as a mixed number in simplest form?
Suppose n/d is an improper fraction where, by definition, n > d.Divide n by d to give a quotient q and a remainder r. Then the equivalent mixed number is q r/d.
When multiplying mixed numbers do you have to multiply the whole numbers or just the fractions?
More than that. You need to multiply the whole number, the farctions AND cross multiply the whole numbers and the fractions. Then add together all the answers. Thus, 23/4 * 56/7 = 2*5 + (3/4*6/7) + 2*6/7 + 3/4*5 Actually, it is far simpler to convert the mixed fractions to improper (top heavy) fractions, and then multiply the numerators together to give the numerator of the answer and multiply the denominators together to give the denominators of the answer.

How do I resolve improper fractions into partial fractions?
You have a fraction say 33/5, which is an improper fraction you take the 5 into the 33. that is divide the doniminator(5), into the numerator (33), and that will give you 6 3/5.

A mixed number can be converted into an improper fraction. Mixed numbers as improper fractions can be divided just like any other fraction. To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the original numerator to give the new numerator and put this over the original denominator.

What is a fraction of a fraction?
A fraction of a fraction is yet another (usually smaller) fraction. For example 1/4 of 1/3 = (1x1) / (4x3) = 1/12 Only when both or one of the fractions is an "improper" fraction (larger than 1) does the multiplication give a result that is larger than the beginning fractions. For example : 7/4 x 3/5 = 21/20 = 1 1/20

How do you subtract mixed form with unklike denominator?
The easiest method is to:make the mixed numbers into improper fractions;subtract the improper fractions by making the fractions equivalent fractions with a common denominator;convert any resulting improper fraction back into a mixed number.To convert a mixed number into an improper fraction multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator to create the new numerator and put this over the original denominator.eg 52/3 ⇒ (5 x 3 + 2)/3 = 17/3To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator to give the whole number and a remainder; the remainder is put as the numerator over the denominator to provide the fraction.eg 16/5 ⇒ 16 ÷ 5 = 3 r 1 ⇒ 31/5
