What is the mixed number or whole number for 22/5

Answer 1

The mixed number of 22/5 would be 4 2/5  this is so because 5 goes into 20 (we rounded) we get 4 and that leaves us with the # we took away 2/5

Answer 2

to change a improper fraction you divide 22 by 5

so, 22 ÷ 5 = 4 r2

Since you have a whole number to be 4 you keep 4 as the whole number. You keep 2 as the numerator and 5 as the denominator so you get,

`4(2)/(5)`

to get back to
`(22)/(5)` you multiply 4 by 5 and then add two. So,

`(4*5)+2 = 22`. You will always have to keep the denominator the same when converting from one form to an another ===>
`(22)/(5)`
