4 2/3

Imagine a pizza cut into three equal pieces.

3/3 = 1
6/3 = 2
9/3 = 3
12/3 = 4
14/3 = 4 2/3

Then -- multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
14/3 * 2/2 = 28/6
14/3 * 3/3 = 42/9



Alex
got it. i just started mulitplying small numbers(like 3 & 4) by the numerator and denominator of 14/3(cause 14/3 is what you get when you turn mixed numders of 4 2/3 into improper fractions. so i got 42/9 & 56/12. correct?
Ms. Sue
Yay! You've got it! :-)
