Why can't i see this integer as a fraction - Office Equipment & Supplies

All integers are rational numbers. The easiest way to see that is to write an integer as a fraction with 1 as a denominator; 4=4/1=8/2; 5=5/1.
Any number that can be written as a ratio of two integers numbers is by definition a rational number ( it is a ratio---rational).
Any decimal number with a periodic decimal part can be cast as a fraction, so it is rational.
An irrational number is a number that cannot be written as a fraction.
Examples: PI, sqRT(2), Sqrt(3), SQRT(5), e. There is an infinite number of them.

You do the operation to get a decimal number.
Isolate the integer part (to the left of the decimal point)
Convert the non integer part (decimal part) into a fraction.
Write the result as (integer part) (fraction part)
3/2=1.5
Integer part is 1, decimal part is 0.5
0.5 as a fraction is 1/2
3/2= 1 1/2

Isolate the integer part (to the left of the decimal point)
Convert the non integer part (decimal part) into a fraction.
Write the result as (integer part) (fraction part)
3/2=1.5
Integer part is 1, decimal part is 0.5
0.5 as a fraction is 1/2
3/2= 1 1/2

Separate the number into its integer and fractional portions: the integer is 85 and the fraction is 0.4. Convert 0.4 to a fraction: 2/5. Combine the two: 85 2/5.

If you want to know how to do it on a particular calculator, please specify the make and model.

I am sorry but the question does not make sense. The millimeter is a unit of length (physical unit), while a fraction is a mathematical object that is defined as the ratio of two integers. It involves dividing two integer (whole) numbers, such as 1/3.
Would you care to reformulate the question?

A mixed number is made up of an integer part and a fraction part. Thus you enter the integer, you press + than enter the fraction part.

After calculation, just press key [SD] to display it as decimal number.




If you want to see solutions as decimal numbers press [SHIFT][MODE][2].




Please rate my answer if I helped you :)

Technically a fraction is just the ratio of two integers (division of two integers). To enter a fraction, type in the numerator, press the division key, then enter the denominator.

The problem is preventing the fraction from being evaluated. To do that press [MATH] key, select [1:

A fraction is basically a division of two integer numbers. To enter a fraction you type the numerator, press the division key, enter the denominator and press [ENTER]. For a mixed number (integer + fraction) enter the Integral part, press [+] and then enter the fraction part as described above.

However what you really want to know is how to enter a fraction and KEEP it in a fraction format.
To do that, you enter the fraction as described above, then you press the [MATH] key and select [1:>Frac] then [ENTER}.
The fraction will keep its nature but what will be displayed is the irreducible equivalent.

Does what I said sound too difficult? Well, Cheer up. TI has issued a major upgrade to the OS of the TI84PLUS/TI84PLUS SE. Download the OS version 2.53 MP and install it on your calculator. The easiest way to do so is to open TIConnect on your computer, connect the calculator to the computer and click the UPDATES button in the TI Connect main window.

hi maybe the formula below will help you

A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction with an integer numerator and a non-zero natural number denominator. Fractions are written as two numbers, the numerator and the denominator, with a dividing bar between them. In the fraction written m⁄n or
m represents equal parts, where n equal parts of that size make up one whole. Two different fractions may correspond to the same rational number; for example 1⁄2 and 2⁄4 are equal, that is:
If the absolute value of m is greater than n, then the absolute value of the fraction is greater than 1. Fractions can be greater than, less than, or equal to 1 and can also be positive, negative, or zero. The set of all rational numbers includes the integers, since every integer can be written as a fraction with denominator 1. For example −7 can be written −7⁄1. The symbol for the rational numbers is Q (for quotient), also written .
