Question

what is \\(\frac{9}{2}\\) as a mixed number? options: \\(4\frac{1}{2}\\), \\(2\frac{1}{9}\\), 5 (and another option partially visible)

Explanation:

Step1: Divide 9 by 2

To convert the improper fraction $\frac{9}{2}$ to a mixed number, we perform the division: $9 \div 2$.

Step2: Express as mixed number

When we divide 9 by 2, we get a quotient of 4 and a remainder of 1. So, $\frac{9}{2}$ can be written as $4\frac{1}{2}$ (because $4\times2 + 1 = 9$).

Answer:

$4\frac{1}{2}$ (corresponding to the purple option with $4\frac{1}{2}$)
