Change 3+1/8 to an improper fraction.

$\dashrightarrow\large\blue\textsf{\textbf{\underline{Answer and how to solve:-}}}$

First, multiply the whole part (3) times the denominator (8):-

$\bold{3*8=24}$

Now add the numerator:-

$\bold{25}$

That's the numerator of the improper fraction, and the denominator stays the same.

$\bigstar$ Therefore, the fraction is

$\bold{(25)/(24)}$

$\rule{300}{1}$
