Question

Write 5 3/8 as an improper fraction.

Answer 1

• 43/8

Explanation:

Here ,

Convert 5⅜ as an improper fraction,

We know that,

`\large \bf \: improper \: fraction \: = ( \: whole \: * \: denominator \: +numerator )/(denominator)`

Now,

Come to the question,

`\large \sf5 { (3)/(8) }^{}`

`\large \sf \: \: \: = \: \: \: (5 * 8 + 3)/(8)`

`\large \sf \: = (40 + 3)/(8)`

`{\boxed {\boxed{\large \orange{\bf \: \: \: \: = \: \: (43)/(8) \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: }}}}`

`\rule {190pt} {2pt}`

Answer 2

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\huge\text{Formula for mixed number fraction to improper}\\\huge\text{fraction is:}`

`\mathtt{(a* c + b)/(c) = improper\ fraction}`

`\huge\text{Now that we got that out the way, we can}\\\huge\text{answer the given question, shall we?}`

`\mathtt{5(3)/(8)}\\\\\mathtt{= (5*8 + 3)/(8)}\\\\\mathtt{= (40 + 3)/(8)}\\\\\mathtt{= (43)/(8)}}`

`\huge\text{Therefore the answer should be:}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathtt{(43)/(8)}}\huge\checkmark`
