How do i convert mixed frations into improper fractions\

Answer 1

Change the whole numbers

Explanation:

For example

5 3/6

A whole number written as a fraction for this problem is 6/6.

If the problem was 7 4/9, it would 9/9

I'd the problem was 2 3/4, it would be 4/4.

So basically a whole number written as a fraction is when both the top and bottom number are the same. when divide by each other they equal one. 6 divided by 6 is 1, 9 divided by 9 is 1, 4 divide by 4 is 1.

First

Turn 5 3/6 into 5/1 + 3/6

Now add them to together

To add fractions together they have to have the same denominator or bottom number.

What is a number 1 and 6 have in common ?

6 because 1 can be multiplied with any number but 6 can never be multiplied to create 1.

5 is simple 5 whole numbers

so 5/1 × 6/6= 30/6

30/6 + 3/6 = 33/6

now it's an improper faction. There is no whole number, it been converted into a fraction where the top is bigger than the bottom hence why it is improper
