What is an improper fraction

An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator

This is improper because you can't have more parts than the whole. WELL you can, math is confusing

You can have a mixed number, which says how many wholes there are and how many parts of a whole there is.

It's just called an improper fraction just like that I guess,

all you really need to know is that the numerator (the top number) is greater than the denominator (the bottom number), and to make it proper, you have to make it into a mixed number, but you have to use improper fractions to perform some operations.

You'll learn more about converting stuff from improper fractions to mixed numbers and vice versa to perform certain operations in the future, but for now, you just need to know what an improper fraction is.

I hope this helped, let me know if you have any questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

An improper fraction is one where the magnitude of the numerator is greater than the magnitude of the denominator.

It is not enough to say that the numerator is greater than the denominator. You need to compare their magnitudes, i.e., their absolute values.

Suppose the fraction is 10/(-23).  10 is greater than -23, but 10/(-23) is not an improper fraction.

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
