An Improper Fraction is one were the numerator(top number) is greater than the denominator(bottom number).

They are often incorrectly named as 'Top heavy fractions'.

For the mixed number 8 4/5 , to make it into an improper fraction , multiply the denominator (5) with the coefficient (8) . Hence 5 x 8 = 40. Then add '4' (The numerator) to 40 . Hence 40 + 4 = 44 . Place over the denominator. Hence '44/5' ; the answer.

As an example here is another one 7 1/7 = 36/7.

8 ⁴/5 as an improper fraction is ⁴⁴/5

For some that may not understand how I got the final answer

Here's a clear explanation:

  • To turn a mixed fraction to an improper fraction, you must identify the numerator and denominator, which is 4 and 5 respectively

  • Now that we know the numerator and denominator we can do the easy math.

Multiply your denominator with the whole number, like so;

8×5 =40

Then move on to add the product to the denominator, like so;

40+4 =44

44 now becomes the numerator and 5 remains as the denominator.
