What is an example of rename a mixed number as an improper fraction?Okay, we want to change the mixed number 3 and 1/2 to an improper fraction. First, multiply the denominator of the fraction (2) by the whole number (3). Once you have multiplied that, add the product to the numerator (1). Therefore, making your answer 7/2.
When doing sums with mixed numbers, it is often easier to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions, do the sum and convert any resulting improper fraction back to a mixed number. This is especially true of division, but with subtraction, if the fraction part of the second mixed number is larger than the fraction part of the first mixed number (subtracting the second from the first), this will result in requiring borrowing from the whole number of the first mixed number. Using improper fractions avoids this complication and makes all sums easier.
There are two types of fractions: proper and improper. One does not become the other. 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. 22/7 = 3 and 1/7
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)
Improper fraction is 23/6 and mixed number is 3 5/6
A mixed number can be changed into an improper fraction
That depends on what kind of number name you are given: an improper fraction? A decimal? A percentage? ...

First, multiply the denominator of the fraction (2) by the whole number (3). Once you have multiplied that, add the product to the numerator (1). Therefore, making your answer 7/2.
To rename a mixed number to a fraction, you multiply the number outside the fraction by the denominator (the lower part of the fraction), and then you add that number to the numerator (higher number of the fraction). If you need to turn 2 3/4 into a fraction, you do this: 2*4=8, 8+3=11, so 2 3/4=11/4 as an improper fraction.
If you are using the same number, then the improper fraction and mixed number are equal.
Improper Fraction.
43 is an integer, not an improper fraction nor a mixed number.
By changing the mixed number into an improper fraction.
First you would want to change the mixed number to an improper fraction. Then you can subtract
To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, add that total to the numerator, and put that total over the original denominator.
Yes, it can. In fact every mixed number has an equivalent improper fraction.
