    What is 11/3 as a mixed number?

    • 3 2/3

    • 4 1/3

    • 3 3/4

    • 3 1/2

    Correct Answer
    A. 3 2/3
    Explanation
    When converting 11/3 to a mixed number, divide 11 by 3, which equals 3 with a remainder of 2. This remainder becomes the numerator of the fractional part, and the denominator remains as 3, resulting in the mixed number 3 2/3. This demonstrates that eleven thirds can be expressed as three whole units along with two-thirds of another unit, simplifying understanding and visualization of the fraction in terms of whole and partial units.Divide the numerator by the denominator: 11÷3=311 \div 3 = 311÷3=3 with a remainder of 2.Write the quotient as the whole number: 3.The remainder becomes the numerator of the fractional part: 2.The denominator remains the same: 3.So, 113\frac{11}{3}311​ as a mixed number is 3233 \frac{2}{3}332​.The correct answer is 3 2/3.

    To convert the mixed number 2 1/2 into an improper fraction, multiply the whole number 2 by the denominator 2 (giving 4), then add the numerator 1, resulting in 5. The total is 5, with the original denominator of 2 retained, making the improper fraction 5/2. This process converts a number representing a whole plus a part (two whole ones and half of one) into a single fractional representation.Multiply the whole number by the denominator: 2×2=42 \times 2 = 42×2=4.Add the numerator: 4+1=54 + 1 = 54+1=5.The denominator remains the same: 2.So, 2122 \frac{1}{2}221​ as an improper fraction is 52\frac{5}{2}25​.The correct answer is 5/2.
