Numerator÷Denominator= The whole number
Remainder= new numerator
Denominator is the same unless can be simplified.

Say for example, you have the improper fraction 18/7
The first step is to find out how many times 7 fits into 18
This looks like flipping the fraction, 7/18 = 2 whole times with 4 parts left over
The 4 left over gets put in front of the original number (7) to give 2 4/7

To check if you have done it correctly, multiply the whole number (2) by the denominator ( 7 ) and then add the numerator.
2 x 7 = 14 + 4 = 18

Hope this helps

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn the mixed number into an improper fractions: 13 × 2 = 26, 26 + 1 = 27
Re-write improper fraction: $\frac{27}{2}$
$\frac{27}{2}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{4}$ = $\frac{27}{2}$ × $\frac{4}{3}$
$\frac{27}{2}$ × $\frac{4}{3} = \frac{108}{6}$
108/6 = 18

3 A Gas station A charges $3.50 per gallon of gas plus 58 for a car wash. Gas station B charges $3.25 per gallon of gas plus S10

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

8 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The $2 difference in the price of a car wash is made up by the gas purchase at the rate of $0.25 per gallon. So, it takes ...

$2/($0.25/gal) = 8 gal

to make the costs the same.

The customer must purchase 8 gallons for the total cost to be the same at both gas stations.

___

3.50g +8 = 3.25g +10 . . . . costs at each station for g gallons of gas + wash

0.25g = 2 . . . . . . . . . subtract 3.25g+8 from both sides

g = 2/.25 = 8 . . . . . . the way we did it above

What is 5 8/12 plus 3 5/12

irina [24]

First add the whole numbers;

5 + 3 = 8

then add the numerators( you could add them cause they have like denominators);

8/12 + 5/12 = (8+5) = 13/12

13/12 = 1 1/2

so your final answer would be: 9 1/2 (I added the whole numbers)
