    To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, you follow these steps:

    1. Multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction.

    2. Add the result to the numerator.

    3. Place the sum over the original denominator.

    Here’s an example:

    Let’s convert the mixed number 3 1/4 to an improper fraction.

    1. Multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator (4): 3 * 4 = 12.

    2. Add the result (12) to the numerator (1): 12 + 1 = 13.

    3. Place the sum (13) over the original denominator (4): 13/4.

    So, 3 1/4, as an improper fraction, is 13/4.
