You would do 5x4 = 20 then +3 gets you 23 as the numerator.

Then just do 23/5 which is 4.6

Answer:

4.6

Explanation:

1. Multiply the whole number by the denominator

4 x 5 = 20

2. Add the result of step 1 to the numerator

20 + 3 = 23

3. Divide the result of step 2 by the denominator

23 ÷ 5 = 4.6
