Top-heavy (vulgar) fractions to mixed fractions

Learn how to convert top-heavy or vulgar fractions to mixed fractions

It is often useful to be able to convert between so called top-heavy or "vulgar" fractions (that is, fractions where the numerator is greater than the denominator) and mixed fractions (a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction).

Examples of top-heavy fractions are:

Examples of mixed fractions are:

7ΒΌ       9Β½       21ΒΎ

To convert from a top-heavy fraction to a mixed fraction, divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator to get the whole number part, use the remainder as the numerator of the fraction part, and the denominator of the top-heavy fraction becomes the denominator of the fraction part.

9/4     =     2 + 1/4     =     2ΒΌ

To convert in the other direction from a mixed fraction to a top-heavy or vulgar fraction try this topic: "Mixed fractions to top-heavy fractions" .

With our Pong math game you will be practicing the topic "Top-heavy fractions to mixed fractions" from 4th grade / Fractions / Convert fractions. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to convert these top-heavy fractions to mixed fractions.

This is our version of the classic early computer game "Breakout" (itself a development of the even earlier "Pong" game - we prefer that name) where a player controls a bar that knocks a ball or puck around the screen.

Large thumbnail for math game Pong

In our version of Pong/Breakout, there are 3 types of bricks for you to break: green bricks are worth just 2 points; yellow bricks are worth a whopping 50 points; breaking white bricks, which are worth 10 points, wins you a math question from the topic you have chosen.

You start with 5 lives. If the ball goes below the paddle, you lose a life and 200 points. The game ends when you answer all 10 questions or lose all your lives.

Notes

  1. This version of Pong is a one player game to learn or revise math
  2. Our PONG for math is a scoring game - play a few times and set a personal best score!
  3. Addictive! You may end up trying to avoid the white bricks so that you can play for longer...
