Question

Write a mixed number and an improper fraction for the model below.

Answer 1

It goes full, full, full three rows full (just picture them all together.

Answer 2

Two rows my bad.

Answer 3

OK, so I think they want the improper fraction to be the TOTAL number of shaded squares / total number of squares

Then convert that to a mixed numeral, just like in the other problem.

Answer 4

@DebbieG can you do the other one while i do this one? please?

Answer 5

Do what other one? huh?

Answer 6

You have to put the problem as a mixed number and a improper fraction

Answer 7

@DebbieG do you know the answers?

Answer 8

Yes. I know how to do it.

But what matters is that YOU know how to do it.

You can either do the improper fraction first and then convert that to a mixed number, or vice-versa. Up to you, really, either will work.

Answer 9

How do you do it

Answer 10

The improper fraction is 44/48 right?

Answer 11

@DebbieG so your not gonna help me?

Answer 12

I'm trying to help you, I didn't see the notification immediately.

Yes, that's the improper fraction, although it isn't in lowest terms - you can reduce that.

Answer 13

I have to leave soon.

Reduce the improper fraction, then to get the mixed number, just do the division.

You'll get a quotient and a remainder. Then the mixed number = quotient + divisor/remainder:

\[\frac{ a }{ b }=quotient+\frac{ remainder }{ b }\]
