Answer:

47/2

Explanation:

you take 22 times 2 and get 46. then you add 1 and get 47. we know this is the correct answer because when you are converting a mixed number to a fraction, you take the denominator (bottom) and multiply it to 22, getting 46. then you add the numerator (top) to the answer that you got from the previous step. this step will end you with 47. you keep the denominator (bottom) as 2, therefore getting 47/2.
