Let’s solve each problem one by one, step by step.
---
Problem 1: Write the mixed number as an improper fraction — 3 ⁴/
To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction:
- Multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator (9):
3 × 9 = 27
- Add the numerator (4):
27 + 4 = 31
- Keep the same denominator (9)
So, 3 ⁴/₉ =
31/9
✔ Final Answer for #1:
31/9

Problem 2: Write the mixed number as an improper fraction — 2 ¹/₄
Same steps:
- Whole number (2) × denominator (4) = 8
- Add numerator (1): 8 + 1 = 9
- Denominator stays 4
So, 2 ¹/₄ =
9/4
✔ Final Answer for #2:
9/4
---
Problem 3: Write the mixed number as an improper fraction — 2 ³/₅
Steps:
- 2 × 5 = 10
- 10 + 3 = 13
- Denominator is 5
So, 2 ³/₅ =
13/5
✔ Final Answer for #3:
13/5

Problem 4: Find The Equivalent Fraction — 2/16
We can simplify this fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor.
GCF of 2 and 16 is 2.
2 ÷ 2 = 1
16 ÷ 2 = 8
So, 2/16 =
1/8
✔ Final Answer for #4:
1/8
---
Problem 5: Which point is 7/8?
Looking at the number line from 0 to 1, it’s divided into 8 equal parts (since we’re dealing with eighths).
Each tick mark represents 1/8.
So:
- Point C is at 1/8
- Point D is at 3/8
- Point E is at 6/8 (which is 3/4)
- Point F is at 7/8 ← This is what we want!
✔ Final Answer for #5:
D. Point F

Problem 6: Write the improper fraction as a mixed number — 22/3
Divide 22 by 3:
3 goes into 22 seven times (because 3×7=21), with a remainder of 1.
So, 22/3 =
7 ¹/₃
Check options:
A. 7³/₄ → no
B. 7²/₃ → no
C. 7¹/₃ → YES
D. 7¹/₄ → no
✔ Final Answer for #6:
C. 7¹/₃
---
Problem 7: What fraction is represented at point G?
The number line goes from 0 to 1, and there are 4 equal segments marked (including endpoints). So each segment is 1/4.
Point G is at the third mark after 0 → that’s 3/4.
Options:
A. 1/5 → too small
B. 2/3 → not matching divisions
C. 3/4 → matches!
D. 2/1 → way too big
✔ Final Answer for #7:
C. 3/4

Problem 8: Multiply — 4/3 × 15
First, write 15 as a fraction: 15/1
Now multiply straight across:
(4 × 15) / (3 × 1) = 60 / 3
Simplify: 60 ÷ 3 =
20
✔ Final Answer for #8:
20

Final Answers Summary:
1. 31/9
2. 9/4
3. 13/5
4. 1/8
5. D. Point F
6. C. 7¹/₃
7. C. 3/4
8. 20
