CONVERTING
MIXED FRACTION INTO IMPROPER FRACTION:
A
mixed fraction can be converted into an improper fraction by using the below
steps:
1.
Find the product of the whole number and the denominator.
2.
Add the numerator of the mixed fraction to the product; gives the numerator of
the improper fraction.
3.
Thus, Required Improper fraction = Numerator of Improper fraction / denominator.
Covert
the Mixed fractions into Improper fractions:
1)
6
3/4
Solution:
Given:
whole number = 6 ; numerator = 3 ; denominator = 4.
a.
Product of Whole number = 6 and the denominator = 4.
Whole number x denominator = 6 x 4 = 24.
b.
Adding numerator of the mixed fraction = 3 and the product obtain in before
step.
Numerator
+ Product = 3 + 24 = 27: Numerator of the improper fraction.
c.
Thus, the Improper fraction = 27/4.
2)
5 8/9
Solution:
Given:
whole number = 5 ; numerator = 8 ; denominator = 9.
a.
Product of whole number = 5 and the denominator = 9
Product
= 5 x 9 = 45.
b.
Numerator of the improper fraction = Adding numerator of the mixed fraction and
product.
Numerator
of the improper fraction = 8 + 45 = 53.
c.
Thus, Required Improper function = 53/9.
3)
8 4/9
Solution:
Given:
Whole number = 8 ; numerator = 4 ; denominator = 9.
a.
Product = whole number x denominator = 8 x 9 = 72.
b.
Numerator of the improper fraction = Numerator + product
= 4 + 72 = 76.
c.
Thus, required improper fraction = 76/9.
4)
2 6/7
Solution:
Given:
Whole number = 2 ; numerator = 6 ; denominator = 7.
a.
Product = whole number x denominator = 2 x 7 = 14.
b.
Numerator of the Improper fraction = Numerator + product
= 6 + 14 = 20.
c.
Thus, required Improper fraction = 20/7.
5)
8 4/5
Solution:
Whole
number = 8 ; numerator = 4 ; denominator = 5.
a.
Product = whole number x denominator = 8 x 5 = 40.
b.
Numerator of the Improper fraction = Numerator + product
= 4 +
40 = 44.
c.
Thus, required Improper fraction = 44/5.
