Question

Which of the following fraction cannot be reduced to a mixed fraction?

• A. $\frac{9}{8}$
• B. $\frac{4}{5}$
• C. $\frac{11}{8}$
• D. $\frac{14}{5}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{4}{5}$

Numerator must be greater than denominator for a fraction to be reduced to a mixed fraction.
$\frac{9}{8}$ : Numerator > Denominator
$\frac{4}{5}$ : Numerator < Denominator
$\frac{11}{8}$ : Numerator > Denominator
$\frac{14}{5}$ : Numerator > Denominator
Hence, $\frac{4}{5}$ can not be reduced to a mixed fraction.
