EXAMPLE: Turning 4/3 into an improper fraction
In order to turn an improper fraction into a mixed fraction, you need to find the closest number to multiply the denominator by to get the numerator (ex: 3 times 1 is the closest number to 4). Then you would subtract that number after it was multiplied (in this case 1x3= 3) from the original numerator (so 4-3 = 1.) The answer for this question is 1 and 1/3.
Another example: 15/4 is 3 and 3/4 as a mixed number because 15 divided by 4 is closest to 3 (3x4 is 12 and 3x5 is 15, which is too large) with a remainder of 3. The closest multiple is the whole number and the remainder is the new numerator.
Hope this helps! I'm sorry if it's confusing-- it's easier to explain with paper and pencil :)

Trey runs 3 miles in 25 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would he run in 20 minutes?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion.

3/25 = x / 20      Notice that both times are in the denominators. Be sure you always set up a proportion that way. Like units in the denominator. Like units in the numerator.

Cross multiply

3 * 20 = 25 * x                        Combine

60 = 25x                                 Divide by 25

60/25 = x

x = 2.4 miles in 20 minutes.
