4 5/8 as an improper fraction is 37/8
——> 8*4=32 32+5=37
As a mixed number it is the same I think. 5 can’t decide into 8 so it stays 4 5/8.
Hopefully this helps...
27 and 36
12 is too short to be multiplied by 9, 21 can be multiplied by 3 but not 9 again, 3 can’t go into 45. Which leaves 27 and 36. 3 times 9 equals 27. 3 times 12 equals 36, 9 times 4 equals 36.
