We have a whole number part and a fraction part.

Enter the integer part of the fraction

So this part, the integer part, is 3 and the fraction part is 17 40.

So far when we've been adding these mixed numbers, the fraction part always ended up as a proper fraction.

If you consider this blue part the whole, what fraction does this red part represent?

We were able to separate this out and do it pretty straightforward, because in this situation, the fraction part that we're subtracting from the other fraction part was smaller.

So the question is what fraction of the whole is the part

Since the jaws would only open a fraction larger than the part size

Fraction

I just wanted to give you that special circumstance when your fraction part ends up improper.

If you view this yellow triangle as the whole, what fraction does this red part represent?

Fraction bar

Fraction Task

But then you'd get a fraction here and a fraction here.

Moon's illumination fraction

Not the entire country, but a fraction of the country, a substantial fraction.

That is a fraction.

It is a fraction.

Well an improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is larger than the denominator.

Fraction of the period's discoveries

Fraction of the period's discoveries

Fraction of the period's discoveries

And what's an improper fraction?

This is an improper fraction.

An improper fraction is just a pure fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator.

And so this is equal to we still have a whole number part six but the fraction part is now one, one over four, so we get six and one fourth.

You can either turn both of these into improper fractions and then subtract, or you can subtract the whole number part and then the fraction part, so let's do it that way.

Within a fraction of a second

This is as an improper fraction.

Let's write 0.8 as a fraction.

Now we can reduce that fraction.

It's being written as a fraction.

This is the partial fraction decomposition.

This is just partial fraction decomposition.

Over here I'm adding a fraction.

Write 2.75 as a simplified fraction.

So if we separated out the whole number parts and the fraction parts, this fraction is actually smaller.

And once again, you could bring the 13 down so you don't have a fraction over a fraction.

And we saw that the hardest part really was just the partial fraction decomposition that we did up here, not making any careless mistakes.

If you're going through the trouble of making it a mixed number, the fraction better be a proper fraction.

The degree of the numerator in this part of the fraction, I guess you could call it, is going to be 1 less than that.

Change the color of the fraction bar

Let's start with the fraction 1 2.

Let me actually do an improper fraction.

And what fraction of them are pink?
