Question

42/4 as a improper fraction

Answer 1

**CORRECTION** 21/2 because when you simplify it (dividing the top and the bottom by 2) you get 21/2. My first asnwer was a mixed number

Answer 2

To figure this out, we need to look for how many times 4 can go into 42.

4*10=40

Later, we have a remainder of 2 because 42-40=2

We write 10 as the whole number and 2 on the numerator.

10 2/4 = 10 1/2

Final answer: 10 1/2 is the mixed number, but the improper fraction simplified is 21/2 

Improper fraction: 21/2
Mixed number: 10 1/2
