What is a fraction?

Fraction number consists of two parts one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

We have:

$4\frac{1}{2}$ ounce hamburger patty has $25\frac{1}{2}$ grams of protein

$4\frac{1}{2}$  = 9/2

$25\frac{1}{2}$ = 51/2

Let's suppose each hamburger patty has x grams of protein so the value of x:

$\rm x = \frac{\frac{51}{2}}{\frac{9}{2} }$

x = (51/2)×(2/9)

x = 5.66 ≈ 5.7 grams of protein

For fish Let's suppose each fish has y grams of protein so the value of y:

$\rm y =\frac{32}{6}$

y = 5.3 grams of protein

Thus, the hamburger patty has approximately 5.7 grams of protein per ounce and the fish has approximately 5.3 grams of protein per ounce.
