To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, you first multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction, then add the numerator. This sum becomes the new numerator, while the denominator remains the same. For example, to convert 2 1/3 to an improper fraction, you would do (2 * 3) + 1 = 7, so the improper fraction is 7/3.

for mixed number: 11 is whole and .1111111... is the same thing as 1/9 11 1/9 for improper fraction: .111111... is 1/9 and 11 is 99/9 100/9
divide example ; 22 - divided by 11 = 1 2
Assuming you want the 666... to repeat endlessly, you need to write:x = 7.66666... (equation 1) 10x = 76.66666... equation 2) Then subtract equation 1 from equation 2, and solve for "x". This will give you "x" (your number) as a fraction.
To solve: 24/100 ÷ 15/10 first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: 15/10 = 15/10 so that the problem becomes: 24/100 ÷ 15/10 which can be solved by using the fraction divide rule (turn the second fraction upside down and multiply), simplifying if possible: 24/100 ÷ 15/10 = 24/100 x 10/15= 240/1500 = 4/25
