(9x+5)/x *this is to convert mixed fraction into improper fractions. Improper fractions are fractions where the numerator is greater than the denominator.

Assume x = 9

((9*9)+5)/9 = (81+5)/9 = 86/9 ; 1st number is 86. 2nd number is 9.

9.55 OR 9 5/9
9 | 86.00
81 * 9 x 9
5.0
4.5 * 9 x 0.50
0.50
0 .45 *9 x 0.05
0. 05
