Answer:

C: 5/4

Explanation:

What is an improper fraction? An improper fraction is when the numerator (top number) is greater than the denominator (bottom number).

How is it 5/4? In the diagram, there are 4 separations, or 4 equal parts in each box. This means the denominator will be 4.

There are 5 "fourths" or five sections in these four-part boxes. So, the answer is 5/4.
