Convert this into an improper fraction (one that has only numerator and denominator). Then simply exchange the numerator and the denominator.
Divide the numerator (top number = 50) by the denominator (bottom number = 7) to get a result and remainder; the result is the whole number (of the mixed number) and put the remainder as the numerator over the denominator (to get the fraction of the mixed number):50 ÷ 7 = 7 r 1⇒ 50/7 = 71/7
1 note that the numerator becomes 7 x 8, and the denominator becomes 8 x 7, which in both cases works out to 56. So you have 56/56 which is 1.
7/4 is an improper fraction. The lesser denominator (4) is below the greater numerator (7). Divide the numerator by the denominator to see how many times 4 goes into 7. 7 ÷ 4 = 1 remainder 3 The resulting mixed number is 1 3/4 (one and three over four).
It is anImproper fraction,ONLY if the numerator is bigger than the denominator, and if the numerator and denominator are the same it is a whole number.example of an improper fraction: 5/3example of a whole number: 7/7
