Answer:


(22)/(5)

Explanation:

To write a mixed number as an improper fraction, you start by converting the "number part" into a fraction.

For example, in this problem 4 is the number part, and we want to rewrite 4 as fraction with a denominator of 5. To do this, we multiply four by 5, which is twenty and put this over 5:
(20)/(5). This would be a fraction representing 4(you can check through division).

Next, we need to add
(2)/(5) to this.
(2)/(5) +(20)/(5) would just be
(22)/(5) because 20 + 2 = 22.
