Frequently Asked Questions
What is the formula?
Improper numerator = (Whole Number × Denominator) + Numerator. The denominator stays the same.
Can I convert back to a mixed number?
Divide the improper numerator by the denominator: the whole-number part of the result is the whole number, and the remainder over the original denominator is the new fraction.
