Converting Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions

The video tutorial explains how to convert mixed numbers into improper fractions using area models and examples. It begins by defining mixed numbers as a combination of whole numbers and fractions, illustrated with the example of 2 3/4. The tutorial then demonstrates the conversion process using area models and arithmetic, showing that 2 3/4 equals 11/4. Another example, 4 1/6, is used to further explain the conversion process, resulting in the improper fraction 25/6. The lesson concludes by reinforcing the conversion method without the need for visual models.
