2. What is 2/4 equal to?

Explanation

The fraction 2/4 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. When we divide 2 by 2, we get 1, and when we divide 4 by 2, we get 2. Therefore, 2/4 is equal to 1/2.

Submit
3. What Number in a fraction is the denominator?

Explanation

The denominator is the bottom number in a fraction. It represents the total number of equal parts into which the whole is divided. For example, in the fraction 3/4, 4 is the denominator, indicating that the whole is divided into four equal parts. The numerator, on the other hand, is the top number and represents the number of parts we are referring to. In the same fraction, 3 is the numerator, indicating that we are referring to three out of the four equal parts.

Submit
4. Describe this fraction as either proper, improper or mixed:

Explanation

The given answer is correct because the word "proper" is used to describe a fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator, indicating that it is less than one whole. In this case, the fraction is written as "proper,Proper," which suggests that both instances of the word "proper" are referring to the same fraction.

Submit
5. What is 2/6 equal to?

Explanation

The fraction 2/6 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. When we simplify 2/6, we get 1/3.

Submit
6. What fraction of this figure is shaded?

Explanation

The figure is divided into 8 equal parts. Out of these 8 parts, 6 parts are shaded. Therefore, the fraction of the figure that is shaded is 6/8, which can also be simplified to 3/4.

Submit
7. If there are 4 pieces of cake and there used to be 6 what is the fraction represents the amount of cake left?

Explanation

The fraction 2/3 represents the amount of cake left. This can be determined by subtracting the number of pieces of cake left (4) from the original number of pieces (6), which gives us 2. The fraction 2/3 indicates that 2 out of the original 3 pieces of cake remain.

9. ​True or False: 

Explanation

The given answer is "False" because it is the opposite of "True".

Submit
10. Convert to an improper fraction:

Explanation

To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator. In this case, the whole number is 23 and the denominator is 6. Multiplying 23 by 6 gives us 138. Adding the numerator 23 to 138 gives us 161. Therefore, the improper fraction equivalent of 23/6 is 161/6.

Submit
11. Convert to an improper fraction:

Explanation

To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator. In this case, the whole number is 51 and the denominator is 8. Multiplying 51 by 8 gives us 408, and adding the numerator 51 gives us a final numerator of 459. Therefore, the improper fraction equivalent of 51/8 is 459/8.
