Convert this improper fraction into mixed numerals. Simplify if needed. When typing mixed numerals, first type the whole number and then a SPACE then type your fraction using the / key (it is next to the 'shift' key). Example: 1 1/2 = one and one half.
Correct Answer
5 2/5Explanation
The improper fraction 54/10 can be converted into a mixed number as follows:
First, divide the numerator (54) by the denominator (10):
54÷10=5 remainder 4
So, the whole number part of the mixed number is 5, and the remainder becomes the numerator of the fractional part. The denominator remains the same. Therefore, the mixed number is:
5104
However, this fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
104=52
So, the simplified mixed number is:
552
Therefore, the improper fraction 54/10 is equal to the mixed number 5 2/5.Rate this question:

Convert the following Mixed Numerals into Improper Fractions:No need to simplify. When typing fractions, Useie the / key (it is next to the 'shift' key).Example: 1/5 = one fifth.
Correct Answer
7/4Explanation
To convert a mixed numeral into an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction and add the numerator. In this case, the whole number is 7 and the fraction is 4. Multiplying 7 by 4 gives us 28, and adding the numerator 7 gives us 35. Therefore, the improper fraction equivalent of 7/4 is 35/4.Rate this question:

Convert the following Mixed Numerals into Improper Fractions:No need to simplify. When typing fractions, Useie the / key (it is next to the 'shift' key).Example: 1/5 = one fifth.
Correct Answer
43/8Explanation
To convert a mixed numeral into an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction and add the numerator. In this case, the whole number is 43 and the fraction is 8. So, we multiply 43 by 8 and add the numerator of the fraction, which is also 43. This gives us 344 + 43 = 387. Therefore, the improper fraction is 387/8.Rate this question:
- 8.

Correct Answer
21/5Explanation
To convert a mixed numeral into an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fractional part and add the numerator of the fractional part. In this case, the whole number is 21 and the fractional part is 5. Therefore, the improper fraction is 21/5.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
43/4Explanation
To convert a mixed numeral into an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction and add the numerator to get the new numerator. The denominator remains the same. In this case, the whole number is 43 and the fraction is 4. Multiplying 43 by 4 gives us 172. Adding the numerator of the fraction, which is 3, to 172 gives us 175. Therefore, the improper fraction is 175/4.Rate this question:
