Question

What is 4 3/7 written as an improper fraction?

Answer 1

ANSWER

$\frac{31}{7}$

EXPLANATION

An improper fraction is a fraction that has a numerator that is greater than the denominator.

To write the fraction as an improper fraction, multiply 4 by 7 and add it to 3.

Then, replace the numerator with that number:

$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow4\frac{3}{7}=\frac{(4\cdot7)+3}{7}=\frac{28+3}{7} \\ \Rightarrow\frac{31}{7} \end{gathered}$

That is the answer.
