How to convert a Mixed number to an Improper fraction

How to convert a mixed number to an improper fraction.

First you multiply the denominator with the whole number because that is how many equal pieces are in the whole. Then you add the product with the numerator because that is what's left. Then just copy the denominator.

For example:

That is how easy it is to convert a Mixed number to an Improper fraction!!!

Adding and Subtracting Fractions

When you add fractions with unlike denominators you need to make them common, to do that you need to multiply the denominators by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc. (anything that it can be multiplied by). When you do it to the bottom, you HAVE to do it to the top. Now you can simply do the equation. Don't forget to put your answer in lowest terms! When you add fractions with like denominators, you just need to solve the equation. NOTE; you need to put your answers in lowest terms (if it is not already) to do that you need divide it by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, etc. (anything that it can be divided by).


When you subtract fractions with like denominators, you simply answer the equation. Remember to put it in lowest terms if it's not already. When you subtract fractions with unlike denominators you need to make them common, to do that you need to multiply the denominators by any number that it can be divided by. When you do it to the bottom, you HAVE to do it to the top. Now simply add the equation. Don't forget; you need to put it in lowest terms, if it's not already!


Now you're done!

How to convert an Improper fraction into a mixed number

This is how to convert an Improper fraction into a mixed number

          So first you have to divide the numerator by the denominator Eg. (if the numerator is 8 and the denominator is 5 you divide 8 by 5 which is 1 and 3 extra) 

             If dividing confuses you you can subtract. To get  the mixed number by subtracting you have to subtract the numerator by the denominator until the numerator is smaller then the denominator for if the numerator is 28 and the denominator is 5 you subtract the 28 by 5 until it cannot be subtracted. So 28 subtracted by five is 23 then 18 then 13 then 8 then 3. 3 cannot be subtracted by 5 so 3 is the fraction. You still need the whole numbers so count how many times you subtracted. 5 28 was subtracted by 5, 5 times so the whole number is 5 and the fraction is 3/5 the mixed number is 5 and 3/5. 

                              So here are so more examples:

How to add fractions with unlike denominators

You multiply the denominator number by the other denominator number (like so). What you do to the bottom, you always do at the top. 

If you get the same denominator, you're doing this correctly. Now you add the two fractions together. 

Is the answer in lowest terms? If the answer is not in lowest terms, you figure out if you have to divide it by 2, 3, 5, 10 or any other numbers that works. 

You do this process until you get the answer to be in lowest terms.

 Now you're done! Here's an example below.
