Question

When the value below is written as an improper fraction, what is the numerator? 4.2 A.38B.41C.44D.46

Answer 1

The improper fraction is a fraction when the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator

Given the number 4.2

It can be written as a mixed fraction as:

`4.2=4+0.2=4+(2)/(10)=4(2)/(10)`

And when converted to an improper fraction will become:

`4(2)/(10)=(10*4+2)/(10)=(42)/(10)`

So, the numerator will be equal to 42
