To find:

The given mixed fraction as an improper fraction

Solution:

We can find out the solution by following the given steps-

We know that a mixed fraction can be converted into an improper fraction by multiplying the denominator of the fraction with the whole number present and then adding it to the numerator of the fraction.

The number obtained becomes the numerator of the improper fraction while the denominator stays the same.

To convert the given fraction, multiply 5 with 3 and add it to 4.

=5×3+4

=19

Now we use 19 as the numerator with 5 still being the denominator of the new fraction obtained.

The new fraction, thus, becomes 19/5.

Therefore, the given mixed fraction as an improper fraction is 19/5.
