Answer:


5 (1)/(9)


6 (2)/(5)

Explanation:

We can convert these improper fractions into mixed numbers by seeing how many times the denominator goes into the numerator.

In
(46)/(9), 9 goes into 46 5 times, with a remainder of 1. So:


5 (1)/(9).

In
(32)/(5), 5 goes into 32 6 times with a remainder of 2, so:


6 (2)/(5).

Hope this helped!
