1. to add a mixed fraction you must first turn all the mixed fractions into improper fractions.
2. ex-2 and 2/3 = 8/3
3. (you multiply the big number by the denominator and then add that number to the numerator......the number you have now is the new numerator and the denominator stays the same)
4. Then you have to make the denominators the same. You do this by multiplying whole numbers to the entire fraction until the denominators are the same.
5. When the denominators are the same.... to add all you do is add the numerators (don't add the denominators!).
6. Your answer should be a new numerator over the old denominator.
7. If your answer is an improper fraction turn it back into a mixed number (by dividing the denominator into the numerator).
8. ex- 8/3......3 goes into 8 2 times......leaving 2(because 8 - 6 = 2)......then put the two over the old denominator :3......egualing 2 and 2/3.
9. Hope this helped.
19/14 as an improper fraction 15/14 as a mixed fraction
An integer or whole number plus a fraction
the mixed number would be 3 57/100but the improper fraction would be 171/100
A mixed number is a whole number plus a fraction. Since the smallest whole number is ' 1 ', any mixed number must be worth more than ' 1 '. But 0.4436 is less than ' 1 ', so there's no way it can be written as a mixed number. As a fraction: 0.4436 = 4,436/10,000 = 1,109/250
98 is an integer and there is no sensible way of representing it as a mixed fraction.
a mixed fraction is a number written out as a whole number plus a fraction: ex. 3 4/5 (three and four fifths) would be a mixed fraction. essentially a whole number plus a fraction (but it would actually be written without the plus sign).
mixed number is a whole number plus a fraction
19/14 as an improper fraction 15/14 as a mixed fraction
That's a "mixed number".
An integer or whole number plus a fraction
It contains whole number plus fraction of 1, so its a mixed number.
the mixed number would be 3 57/100but the improper fraction would be 171/100
A mixed number is (a whole number) plus (a fraction). 362 is a whole number.Where are we supposed to get the fraction from ??If you really must have a mixed number, you can borrow 1 from 362 and use it toconcoct something that looks like a fraction, such as 2/2. Then your mixed number is361 and 2/2 .But why bother ?
175: as a decimal = 175.0 as a mixed fraction = Ideally, it can't be converted into a mixed fraction.
As an example 2 3/5 X 7 First convert the mixed number to an improper fraqction Hence 2 3/5 = 13/5 Next we convert the '7' to an improper fraction by placing it over a trivial '1'. Hence '7' = '7/1'. Re-writing 13/5 x 7/1 We separate;y multiply the numerators together, and the denominators together. Hence 13/5 X 7/1 = 91/5 Finally we convert the improper fraction back to a mixed fraction by dividing by '5' , which will give an answer of '18' and a remainder of '1' Hence it is re-written as ' 18 1/5 '. The answer. NB Whenthe numbers become large , look to see if you can cancel down /reduce. So amending the above numbers slightly. 2 3/5 X 5 = > 13/5 X 5/1 In this case '5' is a common factor ; top & bottom'. so we cancel down by '5' Hence 13/1 X 1/1 proceeding as before. 13 / 1 = 13 The answer!!!!! These methods are good for any set of frqactional numbers.
