4 3/5=23/5

5/5=1

23/5 is greater than 5/5

4 3/5 can be converted into an improper fraction

multiply base of 4 by denominator of 5; then add the numerator of 3; that answer goes over original denominator of 5


= 4 3/5

= [(4*5)+3]/5
multiply 4*5

= (20 + 3)/5
add 20+3

= 23/5


ANSWER: The mixed number written as a fraction greater than one is 23/5

Hope this helps! :)
