Question

Write an equation that represents each mixed numbers as a sum of whole numbers and unit fractions.
4 1/4

1 5/6

Answer 1

17/4 11/6 is the answer

Answer 2

Answer: An equation that represents each mixed numbers as a sum of whole numbers and unit fractions is given below:

1) $4+\frac{1}{4}$

2) $1+\frac{5}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$4\frac{1}{4}$

We need to write it as a sum of whole numbers and unit fractions:

So, it becomes,

$4\frac{1}{4}=4+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{16+1}{4}=\frac{17}{4}$

Similarly, we have

$1\frac{5}{6}$

Again we have to write it as a sum of whole numbers and unit fractions:

So, it becomes,

$1\frac{5}{6}=1+\frac{5}{6}=\frac{6+5}{6}=\frac{11}{6}$

Hence, an equation that represents each mixed numbers as a sum of whole numbers and unit fractions is given below:

1) $4+\frac{1}{4}$

2) $1+\frac{5}{6}$
