Let us first convert
2(1)/(2) and
4(3)/(4) into an improper fraction


  • 2(1)/(2) = (5)/(2) \\

  • 4(3)/(4) =(19)/(4)

To find how many
(3)/(4) are in these numbers, we must divide these numbers by
(3)/(4)


  • ((5)/(2) )/((3)/(4) ) =(5)/(2) *(4)/(3) =(10)/(3)

  • ((19)/(4) )/((3)/(4) ) =(19)/(4) *(4)/(3) =(19)/(3)

There are
(10)/(3) three-quarters in
2 (1)/(2)

There are
(19)/(3) three-quarters in
4 (3)/(4)

Hope that helps!
