You do not do anything. An improper fraction IS a real number.
You can't. Improper and proper fractions are two different things. You can convert an improper fraction to a mixed number.
You take the bottom number and divided by the top number.
You don't.
To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply whole number part by the denominator of the fraction part, then add the numerator to the product. The result is the numerator of the improper fraction. The denominator remains the same. For example, to convert 2 3/8 to an improper fraction, multiply 2*8 = 16, then add 3 to get 19. The improper fraction is 19/8.

An improper fraction cannot be converted to a whole number, since the two are not equivalent.
When working with mixed numbers it is almost always easier to convert them to improper fractions first, do the whatever (with the improper fraction just like an ordinary fraction) and convert any final improper fraction into a mixed number. To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator to form the new numerator and keep the denominator the same. For example: 2 3/7 → (2x7+3)/7 = 17/7 To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number divide the numerator by the denominator to get a whole number quotient and a remainder. The whole number quotient is the whole number and the remainder is put as the numerator over the original denominator as the fraction. For example: 17/7 → 17 ÷ 7 = 2 r 3 → 17/7 = 2 3/7
Cancellation cannot be used to convert a mixed number into an improper fraction.
Convert the mixed number into an improper fraction then divide the fraction and improper fraction as normal (invert the divisor and multiply) and simplify the result (including converting any improper fraction into a mixed number)
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The answer is the whole number. Put any remainder over the original denominator to create the fraction part.
Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction and proceed.
You take the bottom number and divided by the top number.
Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction, multiply by the whole number, convert the answer back to a mixed fraction (if required).
