A mixed number such as 2 3/4 can be written as an improper fraction: 2 wholes are 8 quarters, plus 3 quarters makes 11/4. To add or subtract fractions with different denominators, first change them to the same denominator. Decimals help us write smaller units in bigger ones: 3 kg 250 g = 3.25 kg and 7 rupees 45 paise = 7.45 rupees.
