Answer:

22/5

Explanation:

You would multiply 4 by 5 and that would get you 20, and then you would add that to the number on the top(numerator) to the twenty so in this case it would be 22/5 because you keep the denominator the same.

Answer: 22/5

Explanation:

an improper fraction is a fraction with a higher numerator (the number at the top of the fraction) than denominator (the number at the bottom of the fraction).

An easy way to solve for this is to multiply the integer (in this case its 4) by the denominator, you should get 20 here, then add that number to the numerator, this would give you 22/5
