  1. Converting a mixed number to an improper fraction starts by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and adding the numerator. For instance, 4 2/7 is calculated as (4 × 7 + 2)/7 = 30/7. This method simplifies operations like addition, subtraction, and comparison. Improper fractions provide a single fractional representation of quantities, streamlining calculations in practical tasks like budgeting or resource sharing, where combining whole and fractional parts is necessary.
