What are examples of mixed fraction?
A mixed fraction is another way of writing fractions. Mixed fractions include a whole number and a fraction. For example, 2-1/2 is a mixed fraction. But it's equivalent value 5/2 is not a mixed fraction but an improper fraction.
How do you work out multiplying fractions and whole number as improper and mixes numbers?
When working with mixed numbers it is almost always easier to convert them to improper fractions first, do the whatever (with the improper fraction just like an ordinary fraction) and convert any final improper fraction into a mixed number. To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator to form the new numerator and keep the denominator the same. For example: 2 3/7 → (2x7+3)/7 = 17/7 To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number divide the numerator by the denominator to get a whole number quotient and a remainder. The whole number quotient is the whole number and the remainder is put as the numerator over the original denominator as the fraction. For example: 17/7 → 17 ÷ 7 = 2 r 3 → 17/7 = 2 3/7
Meaning of dissimilar fraction?
Dissimilar fractions are not equivalent as for example 1/2 is the same as 2/4 but 3/5 and 2/7 are dissimilar fractions
What is a number consisting of a whole number and a fraction?
A mixed number. Some people call them mixed fractions.
In what situation can you use only multiplication to find equivalent fractions to a given fraction give an example?
In what situtation can you use only multiplication to find equivalent fraction? Give an example
What is the counter example of the quotient of two proper fractions is a proper fraction?
(1/2) / (1/3) = 3/2 = 11/2, which is not a proper fraction.
What are the six kinds of fractions?
Well there are different kinds of fractions their are mixed numbers, regular fractions and improper fractionsThere are 5 kinds of fraction. Proper fraction, improper fraction, mixed number, unit fraction, and equivalent fractions. An example of a proper fraction is 3/4. An example of an improper fractions is 13/12. An example of a mixed number is 1 1/4. An example of a unit fraction is 1/3. An example of equivalent fractions is 4/8=1/2.I hope you like my answer... :)
Are fractions singular or plural?
The word fractions is plural.The singular of the word is fraction.An example sentence with the plural is: he finds these fractions hard to do.An example sentence with the singular is: I was only paid a fraction of what I was owed.
How do you change a mix fraction to a proper fraction give an example?
Mixed fractions can't become proper fractions. Mixed fractions are greater than one.
Why is the quotient of two fractions less than either fraction?
There can be no reason because your assertion is not true.For example, 1/6 and 1/2 are both fractions less than one. But their quotient is (1/6)/(1/2) = (1/6)*(2/1) = 2/6 = 1/3. And that is not more than 1/2.
Is the quotient of two fractions greater or less than the fractions you srart with?
It is greater as for example 3/4 divided by 1/4 is equal to 3
How can you find mixed fractions using algorthm?
First, determine the largest quotient that divided the number in the numerator by the divisor. Then, the remainder gives you the fraction, giving us the mixed fraction. For example: 20 / 3 = (6 * 3 + 2) / 3 = 6 + (2 / 3)
Is all fractions rational?
No. For example, pi/2 is a fraction which is not rational.
What are the kinds of fractions?
Proper: Numerator less than denominator. Ex.: 5/8Improper: Numerator equal to or greater than denominator. Ex.: 9/4Mixed: a simplified improper fraction, with a whole number and a proper fraction. Ex.: 6 and 2/3---- There are 5 kinds of fraction. Proper fraction, improper fraction, mixed number, unit fraction, and equivalent fractions. An example of a proper fraction is 3/4. An example of an improper fractions is 13/12. An example of a mixed number is 1 and 1/4. An example of a unit fraction is 1/3. An example of equivalent fractions is 4/8 = 1/2.There are improper fractions which have a numerator with a higher value than the denominator (10/5, 15/7, etc).There are also proper fractions in which the denominator is a higher number than the numerator (4/7, 6/10,etc).There are mixed fractions which are improper fractions written with a number written to the left of the fraction (4 1/3), 10 1/2, etc).
What is equal fraction?
As for example the fraction 1/2 equals 2/4 because they are equivalent fractions
How are reciprocals used when dividing fractions?
When dividing fractions, take the reciprocal of the second fraction, and multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. Example: (a/b)/(c/d)=(a/b)*(d/c)
Can an equivalent fraction be an improper fraction?
No. Equivalent fractions applies to proper fractions. Getting an equivalent fractions means getting the same value of the part of a whole.
