How do you convert a mixed number to an improper fraction?

Back

To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator. Place this result over the original denominator. For example, \( 2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{7}{3} \).

What is the process for adding fractions with different denominators?

Back

To add fractions with different denominators, find a common denominator, convert each fraction, and then add the numerators. For example, \( \frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \times d + c \times b}{b \times d} \).
