Mixed numbers contain a whole number with a fraction sitting next to it. To turn this number into an improper fraction, multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction and add it to the numerator.
Example:
6 7/8 is a mixed number.
6*8 + 7 = 55.
55/8 is the same number as an improper fraction.
turn them into improper fractions
you have to turn them into improper fractions before you multiply them.
you cant turn improper fractions into fractions but you can turn fractions into mixed numbers. to do this you see how many times the denominator goes into the numerator. for example: if your improper fraction is 7/5, 5 goes into 7 one time but there is two left over. you just put that two on top of your denominator and it turns out 1 and 2/5.
To find the sum of two mixed numbers, turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions (multiply the base with the denominator and add the numerator), then add the two fractions. To add the two fractions, find the LCD (lowest common denominator) and add the two numerators, but leave the denominators the same.
You multiply the denominator by the whole number and then you add the top half of the fraction to that number. You put the number you get over the original denominator and that is your answer.actually,you divide the numerator to the denominator or the other way around

You can't. That is a proper fraction. You can only turn improper fractions into mixed numbers

SUBTRACTION: You first turn both mixed numbers into improper fractions. If needed, change the denominators into like denominators. Next, subtract the two improper fractions and reduce if necessary. ADDITION: If needed, turn denominators so they are the same number. Next, add and reduce if necessary.
Mixed numbers cannot be turned into proper fractions, but they can be made into improper fractions by multiplying the integer (# on the side) by the denominator (bottom), and then adding that number to the numerator (top).
To find the sum of two mixed numbers, turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions (multiply the base with the denominator and add the numerator), then add the two fractions. To add the two fractions, find the LCD (lowest common denominator) and add the two numerators, but leave the denominators the same.
turn the mixed number into an improper fraction
Turn the proper fraction into an improper fraction.
First, turn the fraction into a improper fraction. Then find a common denominator between the two numbers. After this, subtract strait across, but leave the denominator the same.
