Question

What does

"mixed number in its lowest form." mean?

Answer 1

The question involves fractions, so make sure that your answer is in mixed fraction form. Examples of mixed numbers are, 1
`\frac {1}{4}`, 2
`(3)/(4)`, et cetera. In its lowest form means that the fraction should be reduced to the point where it can no longer be reduced. For example,

2
`(15)/(20)` is not in its lowest form. 2
`(3)/(4)` would be its lowest form (I divided both the numerator and denominator by 5).

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

ok so it basically means reducing a mixed number to its simplest form.
