2 Answers

Explanation:

let's say the improper fraction is 5/2

Use the 2 to divide the 5

2÷5

is 2times remainder 1

since 2 can't divide 1, put a point (.) and add a 0 to the 1

making it 10

so 2÷10 is 5

so your answer is 2.5

hope this helps. please like

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation :Answer

To chance an improper fraction into a mixed number first divide the numerator by the denominator

Example 11/5 divide 11 by 5 and you get 2.2 that means that 5 goes into 11 twice with some leftover which means the answer is going to be 2 plus a fraction

To get the fraction you multiply the denominator by the whole number you found (5*2) and subtract the numerator by that new number

5*2=10 11-10=1

Your new fraction is now 2 1/5
