I want to lead you through this. Is that okay?
Come on man i have like 50 questions :(
This is not an instant homework site; if you practice and figure these out you will realize each one can take about 5-10 seconds.
ok help me out then show
Let me lead you through this, first, start by taking the mixed fractions (any number with a fraction) and making them improper fractions. For example 2 and 2/3=8/3. This is because 3 goes into 8 twice, and has a remainder of 2.
i did not understand that at all.
Okay. There are three common types of fractions. Normal fractions (for the sake of simplicity) are fractions like 3/7, 4/12, etc... anything where the NUMERATOR is LESS THAN the DENOMINATOR. Mixed fractions are fractions like 2 and 2/3, 4 and 5/6... anything with an INTEGER (meaning a number) and A FRACTION. Improper fractions are fractions like 3/2, 7/5, etc...anything where the NUMERATOR is GREATER THAN the DENOMINATOR.
In your problem, you have two mixed fractions, which are HARD TO WORK WITH. We want to convert these fractions from MIXED fractions to IMPROPER fractions.
Can I tell him the answer please?
It is against the code of conduct Alexis.
@whatchalookinat
i don't know this pellet man it don't go to my brain
oh
I almost got banned for doing something like this.
Well can I explain to him?
Or can I show him how to get it?
Yes. That would be fine.
Ok.
Anyway, @musa19965. Think of it this way. You got an apple and a fourth of an apple. You could say you have one and 1/4 apple. Or you can say you have 5/4 of an apple. Does that kind of make sense?
= 5/4 × 11/5 = (5 × 11) / (4 × 5) = 55/20 = 11/4 = 2 3/4
lil bit
I explained it for you.
Good job
