disregard the negative sign for the moment... to turn a mixed number into an improper fraction, take ur whole number (63) and multiply it by ur denominator (3) and u get (64 * 3) = 192....now add that to ur numerator (1) and u get (192 + 1) = 193...now put that over ur original denominator (3) and u get 193/3.....now put ur negative sign back....and u have - 193/3.....simplified form, does not reduce
