Finding one endpoint when given a midpoint and endpoint

The video tutorial explains how to find an endpoint when given one endpoint and the midpoint, focusing on the use of improper fractions to avoid approximation errors. It covers the conversion of mixed numbers to improper fractions, the application of the midpoint formula, and the step-by-step algebraic process to solve for the X and Y coordinates of the endpoint. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of maintaining consistent denominators and provides a visual representation of the problem to aid understanding.

Explain why converting mixed numbers to improper fractions is helpful in solving problems involving midpoints.
