8*2+1/2 and it becomes 16+1/2 which is 17/2.


8  1/2  as improper fraction is  17/2

You get that by multiplying the whole number 8 by the denominator of the fraction. That equals 16 and the 1 from the numerator of the fraction 1/2   so it looks like 16+1=17

This is your new numerator  17. Your denominator is 2 from the original fraction.

17/2
