Expressions that are equivalent to 4 and 5/8

Answer 1

To express \( 4 \frac{5}{8} \) in various equivalent forms, we can convert it to several forms:

1. Improper Fraction: \[ 4 \frac{5}{8} = \frac{(4 \times 8) + 5}{8} = \frac{32 + 5}{8} = \frac{37}{8} \]

2. Decimal: \[ 4 \frac{5}{8} = 4 + \frac{5}{8} = 4 + 0.625 = 4.625 \]

3. Mixed Fraction (staying as it is since it is already in mixed form): \[ 4 \frac{5}{8} \]

4. Expressions with Addition: \[ 4 + \frac{5}{8} \]

5. Expressions with Subtraction: \[ 5 - \frac{3}{8} \] (Since \(5 - \frac{3}{8} = \frac{40}{8} - \frac{3}{8} = \frac{37}{8} = 4 \frac{5}{8}\))

6. Expressions in terms of other fractions: For example, \[ 2 \frac{3}{8} + 2 \frac{2}{8} = 4 \frac{5}{8} \]

All of these are equivalent expressions to \( 4 \frac{5}{8} \).
