Question

Identify the whole-number part of $5\frac{15}{22}$.

• A. $5$
• B. $15$
• C. $\frac{15}{22}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $5$

$5\frac{15}{22}$ is a mixed number.

A mixed number consists of two parts, i.e., fractional part and whole-number part.

Also, $\text{Mixed Number}=\text{Fractional Part}+Whole-NumberPart$

$\therefore 5\frac{15}{22}$ can be expressed as $\frac{15}{22}+5$.

Here, $\frac{15}{22}$ is the fractional part.

And, $5$ is the whole-number part.
