you can not always make it a whole number, but you divide the numerator,(top number) by the denominator(bottom number) and you answer tells you the percent ex. 3/4=.75 which means that 3 is 75% of 4

How do you make a mixed number in to an improper fraction?

The mixed number consists of a whole number and a fraction. Multiply the denominator of the fraction portion by the whole number and to this product add the numerator of the fraction portion. This value is the numerator of the new improper fraction. The denominator of the new improper fraction is the same as the denominator of the original fraction portion of the mixed number.


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.


How do you write an improper fraction as a whole or mixed number theis 2 are fraktions 15above4 and 39above13?

15/4 = 3.75 OR 3 3/4 39/13 = 3 To make a mixed number you make as many whole numbers as possible and then place the leftover fraction next to it. To make a decimal simply make as many whole numbers as possible. Then divide 100 by the denominator (bottom number) of the fraction and multiply that number by the numerator (top number); the number you get is the decimal and goes after the decimal point.


Steps for multipling fractions and mixed numbers?

to multiply fractions add them together and reduce the final fraction. to multiply mixed numbers, first make the mixed number an improper fraction, by mulitplying the whole number and the denominator and adding the answer to the numerator. Example: The improper fraction 8/5 can be changed to the mixed number 1 3/5 by dividing the numerator (8) by the denominator (5). This gives a quotient of 1 and a remainder of 3. The remainder is placed over the divisor (5).


How do you take a fraction and make it a whole number or a mixed number?

to make a fraction a mixed number..... you see how many times the denominator goes into thew numerator. after you do that you put what's left over than that becomes your new numerator,(the mixed number is going to have the same denominator as the fraction).so for example.......12 5------- = 1 -----
