Answer:

1.
(24)/(7)
2.
(21)/(6)

Explanation:

Given the following questions:


3(3)/(7) \\3(5)/(6)

To convert mixed numbers into improper fractions we need to multiply the denominators by the whole numbers, and then add that answer to the numerator while of course keeping the denominator the same.

Question one:


3(3)/(7) \\3(3)/(7) =7*3=21+3=24=(24)/(7) \\=(24)/(7)

Question two:


3(5)/(6) \\3(5)/(6)=6*3=18+3=21=(21)/(6) \\=(21)/(6)

Your answers are "24/7, and 21/6."

Hope this helps.
