3 1/3 is a mixed number that represents the value of three whole units and one-third of a unit. If you want to express it as an improper fraction, you can convert it as follows:
- Multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator (3): \(3 \times 3 = 9\)
- Add the numerator (1) to this result: \(9 + 1 = 10\)
- Place this result over the original denominator: \(\frac{10}{3}\)
So, \(3 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{10}{3}\).
