How can you convert improper fractions to mixed numbers?

Back

Divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient is the whole number, and the remainder is the new numerator over the original denominator.

What is the purpose of using fractions in measurements?

Back

Fractions allow for more precise measurements and can represent values that are not whole numbers.

Front

How do you read a line plot?

Back
