How do you deal with improper fractions?
You need to learn how to convert from improper fractions to mixed fractions and vice versa; however, for most other operations, such as compare, add, subtract, multiply, and divide them, it really doesn't make much difference whether the fraction is proper or improper.
Why is it important to learn about equivalent fractions?
Answer: When adding or subtracting fractions with different denominators it is important to change the denominators into the lowest common denominator by using equivalent fractions. Answer: Equivalent fractions are used to: * Simplify fractions. It is sort of inelegant to write the final solution of a problem as 123/246, when you can just as well write it as 1/2. * Add fractions. If two fractions have different denominators, you need to convert them to equivalent fractions that have the same denominator. Only then can you add. * Subtract fractions (same as addition). * Compare fractions, to check which one is larger (same as addition).
What if fractions didn't exist?
if fraction didn't exist we will never know it or learn it and never understood it :)
