a neater way to type this would be: 4-5/7 or 4(5/7) or 4 and (5/7).

In any case, you're dealing with something divided into 7s. You have 4 whole groups of 7 plus another group that has 5 of the 7 pieces.

So 4*7 = 28

28 + 5 = 32

So you have 32 of the one-seventh pieces ... of 32/7

The "shortcut" way of saying it is multiple the whole number to the denominator and then add the numerator.
