That would be an improper fraction.
Multiply denominator by the whole number and add the whole number to the numerator. Remember that you don't have to change the denominator. The new number will be your numerator
Whole number = 53
Numerator = 1
Denominator = 3
Denominator × Whole number + Numerator
3 × 53 + 1 = 160 and the denominator is 3 as it was in the mixed fraction
