Chapter 1: Problem 1

Convert each mixed number to an improper fraction. $$2 \frac{3}{8}$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The improper fraction form of \(2 \frac{3}{8}\) is \(\frac{19}{8}\).

Step by step solution

01

Identify the Whole number, Denominator, and Numerator

At first, identify distinct parts of the mixed number. Our whole number is 2, the denominator of the fractional part is 8, and numerator is 3.
02

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction by using the formula

According to the formula, we multiply the whole number by the denominator and then add the numerator to the result. Hence \(2 \times 8 + 3 = 16 + 3 = 19\). Our answer will hence have 19 as the numerator while the denominator remains the same since it does not change in the conversion process.
03

Write the answer

The new improper fraction is hence \(\frac{19}{8}\). This is the conversion of the mixed number 2 3/8 into an improper fraction.
