A fraction bigger than one is an improper fraction.
Improper: 5/9 / five ninths Mixed: 1 1/4 / one and one fourth Incomplete: 5/? / five somethings
1 and 2/5 as an improper fraction is 7/5
A proper fraction is a fraction who's numerator is smaller than the denominator. An improper fraction is a fraction who's numerator is larger than or equal to the denominator. 1/2 is a proper fraction. 3/2 is an improper fraction. Now to understand why the improper fraction is larger than the proper fraction, lets split them up. The proper fraction is one half of a whole, whereas the improper fraction is one whole and one half. Basically the proper is one half, and the improper is three halves. In theory, a proper fraction is always less than the whole number under consideration. On the other hand, an improper fraction is either equal to or larger than the whole number under consideration.
To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction 1 1/7 Multiply the coefficient '1' to the DENOMINATOR '7', THEN ADD THE NUMERATOR '1'. hENCE (1 x 7] + 1) / 7 = ( 7 + 1) / 7 = 8/7 The answer!!!!!
5/4
21/4
That would be 41/4
325/100 or 13/4
You don't. An improper fraction is greater than or equal to one. A proper fraction is less than one. Therefore, you can't just convert one into the other.
You can do this in two steps. First you convert it to an improper fraction the usual way. Then you transform it to an equivalent fraction, with a denominator 6.
You can't convert a proper fraction to an improper or mixed fraction - it just doesn't make sense. By definition, a proper fraction is one that is less than one; a mixed fraction - as well as an improper fraction - is less than or equal to one.
Carry out the following steps:Convert each of the mixed fractions into improper fractions.Rename these fractions so that their denominators are the same (= d).Add the numerators together (= n)The answer is n/d, which will be an improper fraction and you may wish to convert that to a mixed fraction.
No because that would take you back to square one... And the improper fraction or number would have to be taken through the correct process again to figure the mixed number.
you muiltiply the three and four than addd the one and keep the demonminator the same.
That's by the way "improper fraction" is defined. An improper fraction is a number greater than one, written as a single fraction.
One and three fourth (not forth) is a mixed fraction and there is no way to convert that into a whole number.
