Answer:


3(1)/(2)

Explanation:

Step 1: Define mixed fraction

A mixed fraction is a number with a whole number and a fraction together

Step 2: Find mixed fraction

Ask how many time can 2 completely fit into 7 without leaving anything left over, 2 fits in 7 3 times because 2 x 3 = 6 and 7 - 6 is 1. We put 3 in front of the fraction and we keep the 1 left over in the numerator of the fraction with 2 as the denominator to get
3(1)/(2)

Hello! :)

Answer:


\huge\boxed{3(1)/(2)}


(7)/(2) as a mixed number:

Divide 2 from 7 and find the remainder:

7 ÷ 2 = 3 R 1.

An improper fraction in mixed form has the quotient as the coefficient, and the remainder over the fraction. Therefore:


(7)/(2) = 3(1)/(2)
