I don't get it i'm in 5Th grade math and i forot how to!How do you make whole numbers fractions?
Put a one under it...
for example 3 = 3/1How do you make whole numbers fractions?
You make the number over 1
example:
4= 4/1
A whole number is just a number over 1
so 4 is 4/1
if you have a mixed number then you can make it into a fraction by this method
4 1/2 is (4x2+1)/2
that is (8+1)/2 = 9/2
and 4 2/3 is (4x3+2)/3
that is 12+2/3 =14/3
and so on so what you are doing is changing the whole number to a fraction by multiplying the value by the denominator of the fraction then adding that value to the original fraction
Put it over a denominator of one.
Ex.) 3 = 3/1
57 = 57/1
put the number over the denominator of 1.
you put a 1 under it! (for example 5=5/1)
DON't Worry
This is all you have to do!
You would just put a one under it....for example see the example below
4

1 This number still is four, but with a one for a denominator
