175 is an integer and not a fraction. However, it can be expressed in rational form as 175/1. There is no sensible way of representing it as a mixed number.
a mixed number is for example 5 4/8 (1/2) and a mixed number is for example 55/7
To write a fraction as a mixed number, you need to subtract multiples of the denominator from the numerator until the numerator is less than the denominator. In this case we take off 16s from 55. 55-16=39. 39-16=23. 23-16=7 So we're left with 7/16, and we've taken off 16 three times which means we have 3 units. So 55/16 as a mixed number is 3 and 7/16
As a mixed fraction: 5+(1/2). OR as an improper fraction in lowest terms: (11/2)
To convert 27.5 out of 40 to a fraction, we first need to express 27.5 as a fraction. Since 27.5 is equivalent to 27 and 1/2, we can write it as 27 1/2. Next, we convert this mixed number to an improper fraction by multiplying the whole number (27) by the denominator (2) and adding the numerator (1) to get 55. Therefore, 27 1/2 is equivalent to 55/2. Finally, we divide 55 by 2 to get the final fraction, which is 55/2 ÷ 40 = 55/2 ÷ 40/1 = 55/2 x 1/40 = 55/80.
