Question

Jenna has 2 whole watermelon and one-third of another watermelon. Write a mixed number and improper fraction to represent the amount of watermelons she has.

Answer 1

The answer to this the mixed number is 2 1/3 and the improper is 1 4/3

My teacher gave me those answers

Answer 2

Well if she has 2 whole watermelons and 1/3 of one that would be 2 1/3 and that would be the mixed number and for the inproper fraction it would be 1 4/3 because you want to take out 1 from the 2 1/3 and add it on to the 1 of the 1/3 making it 1 and 4/3 I hope this helps!
