Llene is making smoothies.The recipe calls for 1 1/4 cups of strawberries, How many cups of strawberries, written as a fraction greater than one, are used in the recipe?



Answer :

I think you're asking to rewrite this as an improper fraction (which are actually more useful than a mixed number in higher level classes). 

Multiply the denominator by the number in front of the fraction. 4 x 1= 4. 
Then add it to the numberator. 
4 + 1 = 5. 

So its 5/4

Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction greater than one must meet the condition that the numerator is greater than the denominator. In fact, if we add 1 plus [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] (0.25), a value greater than one (1.25) is obtained.

To get the required fraction, we must make the following sum of fractions:

[tex]1+\frac{1}{4}=[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{1}+\frac{1}{4}=[/tex]

[tex]\frac{(\frac{4}{1}*1)+(\frac{4}{4}*1)}{4}=[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4+1}{4}=[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Hope this heps!
