Math Problem Statement

Exercice 2 : Écris sous la forme d'une fraction. Convert the mixed numbers in the exercise into improper fractions.

Solution

The image you provided contains exercise questions asking to express the mixed fractions in their proper fraction form. Let me work through each one for you:

  1. 2342 \frac{3}{4}:
    This is a mixed number. To express it as an improper fraction: 234=(2×4)+34=8+34=1142 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{(2 \times 4) + 3}{4} = \frac{8 + 3}{4} = \frac{11}{4}

  2. 4234 \frac{2}{3}:
    Similarly, this is a mixed number. Converting to an improper fraction: 423=(4×3)+23=12+23=1434 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{(4 \times 3) + 2}{3} = \frac{12 + 2}{3} = \frac{14}{3}

  3. 3353 \frac{3}{5}:
    To convert to an improper fraction: 335=(3×5)+35=15+35=1853 \frac{3}{5} = \frac{(3 \times 5) + 3}{5} = \frac{15 + 3}{5} = \frac{18}{5}

  4. 1461 \frac{4}{6}:
    Converting this to an improper fraction: 146=(1×6)+46=6+46=106=531 \frac{4}{6} = \frac{(1 \times 6) + 4}{6} = \frac{6 + 4}{6} = \frac{10}{6} = \frac{5}{3}

  5. 4124 \frac{1}{2}:
    Converting to an improper fraction: 412=(4×2)+12=8+12=924 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{(4 \times 2) + 1}{2} = \frac{8 + 1}{2} = \frac{9}{2}

  6. 2472 \frac{4}{7}:
    Converting to an improper fraction: 247=(2×7)+47=14+47=1872 \frac{4}{7} = \frac{(2 \times 7) + 4}{7} = \frac{14 + 4}{7} = \frac{18}{7}

Now all the mixed fractions are expressed as improper fractions.
