How do you simplify 34/7 to make 4 6/7-SORRY.
2007-06-06 07:45:17 · update #1
34/7 = 4 6/7
7 will go into 34 four times because 4 times 7 = 28.
Take 28 from 34 and you have 6 left over so 4 and 6/7

I'm not sure I understand your question...
4.8 = 4.8 * 10/10 = 48/10 = 4 4/5
to find the difference between them, subtract them.
4 4/5 - 4 6/7 the LCD is 35, so you get 4 28/35 - 4 30/35 = -2/35, so to "turn" 4.8 into 4 6/7 you would add 2/35 to it...
but, if you just wanted to turn 4.8 into a fraction, recognize that 4.8 is the same as 48/10 or 4 8/10 = 4 4/5.
EDIT: (corrected addition from above, and answered revised question below...)
OK, so to turn an improper fraction into a mixed fraction, divide the numbers, and use the remainder of the division for the fractional part.
So, 34 divided by 7 gives you 4 with a remainder of 6 which equates to 4 6/7.
Does that answer your question?

How do you simplify 34/7 to make 4 6/7-
Divide 34 by 7:
4(7) = 28
(34 - 28) / 7 = 6 / 7
The answer is 4 6/7.

4.8
= 4+8/10
= 48/10
= 24/5
= 4 4/5

You can't.
4.8 = 4 80/100
= 4 40/50 = 4 4/5
unless you mean doing arithmetic
Then you add 2/35 to 4/5 to get 6/7
.

Take 7 and divide into 34 - this gives you 4 with a remainder of 6
The 6 becomes the numerator over 7 (6/7) and is attached to 4
This means 4 wholes with another 6 parts of another whole made of 7 parts.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question, but...
Take 4.8, subtract 0.8, add (6/7).
4.8 is not equal to 4 6/7, so you can't get there without changing the value.

34/7
since numerator is bigger than denominator
we wil convert it into mixed fraction
divide 34 by 7and keep the whole number in the middle and the remainder as numerator and denominator will remain te same.
so dividing 34 by 7,,,,,,,,,,the whole no is 4
remainder is 6
so 34/7 = 4 6/7

the .8 part of 4.8 mean 8/10 or 8 parts of 10
If you want to convert 8/10 to ?/7 you could multiply 7 by 0.8 to get 5.6 parts of 7 which you would round to 6 parts of 7 or 6/7.

you don't. 4 and 6/7 would be equivalent to 4.857
