How do you turn improper fractions to proper fractions?

In: Math and Arithmetic, Mathematical Finance, Algebra [Edit categories]

Answer:

you cant turn improper fractions into fractions but you can turn fractions into mixed numbers. to do this you see how many times the denominator goes into the numerator. for example: if your improper fraction is 7/5, 5 goes into 7 one time but there is two left over. you just put that two on top of your denominator and it turns out 1 and 2/5.
