Converting Mixed Fractions to Improper Fractions
To convert a mixed fraction to an improper fraction, follow these steps:
- Multiply the whole number by the fraction's denominator.
- Add that to the numerator
- Then write the result on top of the denominator.
Example:
Let's use 3 2/5 for example.
- Multiply the whole number by the denominator:
3 x 5 = 15
- Add that to the numerator:
15 + 2 = 17
- Then write that result above the denominator:
17/5
