  2. A proper fraction is one whose numerator is lesser than the denominator.

  4. Mixed fractions can be converted to improper fractions.
Example: 2 3/5
This can be done in two ways:

Method 1:

  1. Multiply the denominator of fractional part (5) with the integer portion (2)
  2. 5 * 2 = 10
  3. Add the numerator 10 + 3 = 13
  4. Therefore the improper fraction has numerator 13 and denominator of the fractional part (5)
  5. 2 3/5 = 13/5
Answer: 13/5
Method 2:
  1. The mixed number, 2 3/5, can be changed to an improper fraction by converting the integer portion to a fraction with the same denominator as the fractional portion and then adding the two fractions
  2. So the integer portion 2 is converted to 10/5.
