:D

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Change 1 1/4 to an improper fraction

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

ok

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Do you know how?

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

Yup....but nope

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Multiply the whole number with the number on the bottom of the fraction than add the top number to that and than once you get that number put it on the top over the denominator on the original fraction

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

HMM? so how would it look like

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

4×1+1 is? 1 1/4 bottoms is 4 times whole number 1 plus the top of the fraction 1

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

oh

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

So what does that part equal?

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

\[\frac{ 12 }{ 5 }\]?

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

12/5?

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

\[1\frac{ 12 }{ 4 }\]

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

Yeah 12/5

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

The 5 goes on the top because 4×1=4+1=5 so 5/? The same number as the bottom of the original fraction so 5/4

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Now what is 70% as a fraction?

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

So it would be \[\frac{ 5 }{ }\]

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

\[\frac{ 5 }{ 4 }\]

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Yes thats for the first part good, now we need to find the fraction for 70%

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

i got it right already btw

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

How?

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

But thanks kay
