Question

Susan is buying 5 and a half pies from the market. Write this amount as a mixed number, improper fraction, decimal and percent.

Answer 1

Mixed Number:

$5\frac{1}{2}$ or 5 1/2

Improper fraction:

2x5+1=11

$\frac{11}{2}$ or 11/2

Decimal:

5.5

5.5 because 5 is whole number, and then, 5 tenths because 5 is half of 10.

Percent:

1 whole = 100%

100% x 5 = 500%

500% + 50% (1/2) = 550%

550%

Answer 2

5 1/2
11/2
5.5
550%

I hope this helped :)
