How do we change improper fractions to mixed forms?
How do we change mixed forms to improper fractions?
1. To change an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the numerator by the
denominator. The quotient becomes the whole number part, The remainder becomes the numerator and
the divisor becomes the denominator of the fraction.
2. To change a mixed fraction to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number by the
denominator, add the product to the numerator then write the sum over the given denominator.
C. Application
Read and solve the problem.
1. Rex has 8/3 liters of gasoline. What is the mixed form of 8/3?
2. Regina bought 2 meters of linen for a table cloth. Change 2 into an improper fraction.
