Question

Convert 4.5 to a mixed number help for brainlist with explanation!

Answer 1

Answer:

4 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

the 4 means that the whole number will be 4. .5 means that there is one half of 1, so 1/2 will be the decimal

we can also write the decimal as an improper fraction.

45/10

then, reduce the fraction by 5

9/2

2 can go into 9 four times, so that is our whole number. 2 times 4 is 8, so there is 1 left in the numerator.

4 1/2

Answer 2

It’ll be 45/10!!!
With 4 being the whole number you multiple by the denominator which .5 being written as a fraction would be 5/10. With 4 multiples by 10 being 40, you then add the numerator 5 to get 45 and you write it as a fraction over 10.
