Understanding Mixed to Improper Fractions
A mixed number is a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction (where the numerator is less than the denominator), like 2 3/4. An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator, such as 11/4.
This tool helps you convert from mixed numbers to improper fractions. The formula used is:
Improper Numerator = (Whole Number × Denominator) + Numerator
Improper Denominator = Denominator
For example, to convert 2 3/4 to an improper fraction:
- Multiply the whole number (2) by the denominator (4): 2 × 4 = 8.
- Add the numerator (3) to the result: 8 + 3 = 11. This is the new numerator.
- Keep the original denominator (4).
Therefore, 2 3/4 is equal to 11/4 as an improper fraction. Use the calculator above to easily perform these conversions!
