9 + 3/4
9(4)/4 + 3/4

(9(4) + 3)/4
OpenStudy (diyadiya):
\[9 \frac{3}{4}= 9+\frac{3}{4}= \frac{9 \times 4 +3}{4}= \frac{36+3}{4}= \frac{39}{4}\]
OpenStudy (australopithecus):
remmeber that
3 = 3(4)/(4) = 3(1) = 3

you are just manipulating the expression without changing anything so that you can add the fractions

because remember to add or subtract fractions they must have the same denominators
OpenStudy (asnaseer):
if the question is to convert:\[9\frac{3}{4}\text{%}\]to a fraction, then you need to remember that percent means "out of 100".
OpenStudy (asnaseer):
so:\[9\frac{3}{4}\text{%}=\frac{39}{4}\div100=\frac{39}{400}\]
OpenStudy (asnaseer):
for example to convert 50% to a fraction you would do:\[50\text{%}=50\div100=\frac{50}{100}=\frac{1}{2}\]
