Answer:
Explanation:
When a number is given an improper fraction, it means the entire number is given as a number of portions.
If the portion size is quarters, the improper fraction will show how many quarters there are altogether.
Note than every whole number is
4
4
If the portion size is thirds, the improper fraction will show how many thirds there are altogether.
Note than every whole number is
3
3
If the portion size is sixths, the improper fraction will show how many sixths there are altogether.
Note than every whole number is 6/6
In this case we have
7whole 1/4
which is made up of 7
whole numbers and an extra
1/4
In each of the 7
whole numbers there are 4/4
....
Altogether that is
7×4=28
quarters, written as 28/4
But there is an extra 1/4
, meaning we have
2 whole 9/4
To calculate it quickly:
7whole 1/4=4×7+1/4=29/4
