Give five examples of the following. 1. Proper Fraction 2. Mixed Fraction 3. like fraction 4.Improper Fraction
Answers
Answer:
A proper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is smaller than its denominator. An improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is equal to or greater than its denominator. 3/4, 2/11, and 7/19 are proper fractions, while 5/2, 8/5, and 12/11 are improper fractions.
Answer
Proper fraction
1/2, 4/7, 5/9, 7/12, ………., 15/23, 17/25, etc., are called proper fractions. Improper fraction: The fractions 11/5, 23/9, 18/5, 3/2, 9/8, ………., etc., are the fractions where the denominators are smaller than the numerators. A fraction is said to be an improper fraction when its denominator is smaller than its numerator.
Mixed fraction
example, 5/2 and 10/4 are two equivalent fractions. 5/2: when we divide 5 by 2 we get quotient equal to 2 and remainder equal to 1. So 5/2 could be written in the form of a mixed fraction as 21/2. Similarly, the fraction 10/4 when we divide 10 by 4 we get quotient equal to 2 and remainder equal to 2.
Like fraction
1, 4/5, 7/10 and 1/2 are unlike fractions, which can be represented as 10/10, 8/10, 7/10 and 5/10 which are like fractions
Improper fraction
A fraction where the numerator (the top number) is greater than or equal to the denominator (the bottom number). So it is usually "top-heavy". Example: 5/3 (five thirds) and 9/8 (nine eighths) are improper fractions.
