How do you make nine fourths a mixed number?
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. That number becomes the whole number, and the remainder gets put over the original denominator. 37/7 = 5 and 2/7
What is a fraction divided by something else called?
It may still be a fraction. However, the answer could be an integer. For example, 1/2 divided by 1/8 = 4.
How do 4th graders divide and multiply fractions?
The same way anyone else does. To multiply fractions, multiply the top numbers together and then the bottom numbers together. The two totals become the top and bottom number, respectively, of the new fraction. To divide fractions, flip the second fraction upside down and multiply it.

How do you times mixed fractions?
My strategy for multiplying mixed fractions: what you need to do is turn the mixed number into an improper fraction before you do any thing else. to do that you need to multiply the denominator with the whole number then add the numerator. now that number will be your numerator the denominator stays the same then you do the same to the other mixed fraction turn it into an improper fraction then once both are like that you multiply the numerators together to find the numerator then you multiply the denominators together to get the denominator then simplify your answer to get the right answer.
What is the top line of a fraction called?
The top line of a fraction is called the "numerator". This serves to "numerate" the number of objects that you are finding a fraction of. For example, in the fraction 3/4, you are finding three quarters of something else.
What is a fraction whose numerator is larger than or less than its denominator?
Question seems to be a bit ambiguous but if numerator>denominator it's an improper fraction else, it's a proper fraction.
What fraction is equal to 4 thirds?
8 sixths. Hope it helped. All you have to do is multiply the numerator and the denominator by 2 or anything else.
When the numerator is greater than the denominator. what will the result be?
That kind of fraction is called an "improper" one, because there is something about it that just does not look right to a lot of people. You can always get rid of its impropriety though. If you know what you're doing, you can always change it into either a mixed number or else a whole number, with exactly the same value as the original ugly fraction had.
What are some examples of an integer number?
fraction, a whole number, and something else that i don't know.
Which is bigger fraction five eighths or four fifths?
There are complicated ways of answering this question using common multiples and so forth. If you only want to know which one is bigger but nothing else there is a very simple method. Remember the order of the two fractions. Multiply the numerator (top) of the first number by the denominator (bottom) of the second - so 5*5 = 25. Multiply the numerator of the second number by the denominator of the second - so 4*8 = 32. The second of these is bigger, so the second fraction is bigger.
What are the rules for ordering and comparing fractions?
help me plzplz plz plz plz i need the answer other people need the answer.Here are some rules for working with the same denominator or numerator...Rule #1When two fractions have the same denominator, the bigger fraction is the one with the bigger numerator.2/6 < 5/6 The size of the fraction is the same (sixths), the numerator is what is different (2 2/15.In this case you are looking at the same portion (numerator). This means you look at the denominator and find out which is larger or smaller. Remember the bigger the number the smaller it is.More Ordering and Comparing Advice.....1. Think of 1/2 and 1. If there are a set of fractions you can look to see which are less than half, a half, or close to 1.EX. 4/8, 1/3, 9/101/3 is less than half4/8 is half9/10 is almost 12. Use division. Compare 3/4 and 5/6. You can divide the numerator by the denominator. You will have numbers that are easier to compare3/4= .755/6= .83333/4 < 5/63. Use a picture or number line or fraction strips. It's pretty basic but if all else fails. Just make sure that the item (shape, or number line) is the same size/length and try to divide it as evenly as possible.4. Find a common denominator. By doing so you create an equivalent fraction (the same fraction with a different name).
What is the meaning of numerator and denominator?
Numerator is the number in the top of a fraction. Denominator is the number in the bottom of a fraction. Any object or group that must be divided into parts is referred to as the 'whole'. The total number of equal parts being made is represented by the denominator. The number of these parts being discussed in a particular setting is the numerator. Example: Cut a pie into 5 equal slices. --- 5 is the denominator. If you eat one slice --- 1 is the numerator making the fraction 1/5 If I eat two slices (I like pie) --- 2 is the numerator making the fraction 2/5 Now if someone asks how much pie is left, there are 2 slices left, so the numerator is 2 making the fraction 2/5. Someone else asks how much was eaten, since 3 slices were eaten, 3/5 represents the part of the pie missing because it was eaten. Numerators can be larger than denominators, these are called improper fractions. Suppose we have two pies in the above example. Cut both into 5 equal parts. You eat one slice --- again 1/5 of a pie. I eat 2 slices --- again 2/5 of a pie. But we had 2 pies, so there are 7 slices left (5 from a whole pie and 2 from the pie we took slices from), this means 7/5 pie is left over.
What does truncate mean in math terms?
truncate means to add the whole number to whatever else you have,and then multiply it by your fraction
What is the rule in changing fraction to desimal?
The first rule is to spell decimal correctly, otherwise you might get an answer to something else!There are three types of decimal numbers:(a) terminating.(b) recurring.(c) neither terminating nor recurring.The method, in each case is different.TERMINATINGCount the number of digits after (to the right of) the decimal point. Call this number D.The numerator of the fraction is the original decimal number written out without the decimal point. The denominator is 1 followed by D 0s. This fraction may need simplification.Example:23.456There are 3 digit [456] after the decimal point so D = 3 and so the denominator is 1000.So the fraction is 23456/1000 which can be simplified to 2932/125.RECURRINGCount the number of digits in the string that repeats. Call this number R.The numerator of the fraction is the original decimal number truncated (chopped off) after the first set of the repeating digits minus the original decimal number truncated before the repeating strings start. In both cases retain the decimal points. The denominator is the number formed by a string of R 9s ie 9, 99, 999 and so on. Again, the fraction may need simplification - it may first require multiplying numerator and denominator by a power of ten to get rid of the fractional part of the decimal.Example:17.35426426426....The recurring string is 3 digits long [426] so R = 3 and so the denominator = 999Numerator = 17354.26 - 17.35 = 17336.91The fraction is 17336.91/999 = 1733691/99900 which simplifies to 577897/33300.NEITHERThis is the decimal representation of an irrational number, not a rational number> Therefore, it cannot be expressed as a fraction. The best that you can do is to take the number formed by the first few digits and then treat it as a terminating decimal. This will give an approximate fraction.Examples:pi = 3.14159265359...Let approx pi = 3.1416Then following steps for a terminating fraction,fraction = 31416/10000 = 3927/1250If you had done approx pi = 3.14then you would have hadfraction = 314/100 = 157/50.
How do you get the same numerator?
just think now all you have to do is ask someone else
