Answer 12

Let me explain it from the beginning by taking a simple example
\[\frac{2}{3}\]
The number in the upper part, that is 2 is called as numerator and the one in the lower part, that is 3 is called as denominator.
In a fraction if the numerator is greater than the denominator then that fraction is called as improper fraction as in the following example.
\[\frac{3}{2}\]
Following me till this?

Answer 13

yeah i got you so far...

Answer 14

ok good:)

Answer 15

Improper fractions can be expressed as mixed fractions.
Example for mixed fraction is
\[3\frac{2}{3}\]
Nw let us see how to convert \[\frac{3}{2}\] into a mixed fraction.
To do that we divide 3 by 2. We know that 3 is not divisible by 2. When we divide it we get one as a remainder and 1 as quotient.

write the quotient, in this case 1 followed by the fraction having remainder 1 as numerator and 2 as denominator.
That is
\[\frac{3}{2}=1\frac{1}{2}\]
See if u can get this. If not please do ask:)
