Answer 1

so the ans is here!!!

Answer 2

★ $\textsf{\large{Answer:}}$

${\green{\boxed{\green{\boxed{\red{1\frac{7}{8}}}}}}}$

★ $\textsf{\large{Explaination}}$

★ $\textsf{\large{What is an Improper Fraction?? }}$

• A fraction with numerator greater than the denominator is improper fraction.

Example : $\tt{\dfrac{6}{5}}$

★ $\textsf{\large{What is a mixed Fraction??}}$

• A fraction that has both a whole number and fractional part is known as mixed fraction
Example : $\tt{2\dfrac{1}{4}}$

$\textsf{Steps to convert Improper Fraction into Mixed Fraction}$

• To convert an improper fraction into mixed fraction divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator.

• The quotient will be the whole number.

• The remainder will be the numerator and the divisor will be the denominator of the new fraction.

Example :

$\textsf{Convert} \: \tt{ \dfrac{35}{8}} into \: mixed \: fraction$

$\textsf{Divide 35 by 8}$

$\textsf{Quotient = 4}$

$\textsf{Dividend = 35}$

$\textsf{Divisor = 8}$

$\textsf{Remainder = 3}$

$\textsf{Thus, the Mixed Fraction = }$

$\textsf{Mixed \: fraction \: = }\tt{4\dfrac{3}{8}}$

★ $\textbf{\large{\underline{SOLUTION}}}$

$\textsf{Improper \: fraction \: = } \tt\dfrac{15}{8}$

$\textsf{Divide 15 by 8}$

$\textsf{Quotient = 1 }$

$\textsf{Dividend = 15}$

$\textsf{Divisor = 8}$

$\textsf{Remainder = 7}$

$\textsf{Thus, the Mixed Fraction = }$

$\textsf{The \: mixed \: fraction} = \tt {1 \dfrac{7}{8}}$

$\therefore$$\textsf{The Mixed Fraction is} \tt{1\dfrac{7}{8}}$
