if you can divide whole numbers, turn the fraction into a whole number by finding its equivalent and replacing the fraction with that equivalent. Then divide the new number which should be whole and you have your answer.
turn both fractions into decimals and then multiply!
multiply the denominator by the whole number then add the numerator and you have an improper fraction
If the fraction's numerator is greater than its denominator, then it already is an improper fraction. If its numerator is smaller than its denominator, then there's nothing you can do to it to turn it into an improper fraction.
You can make any whole number into a fraction by putting it over 1.
