What is 1 8 as a Fraction?

Answer The answer for 1 8 as a fraction will be 17/1. Explanation Converting a mixed number to a fraction is straightforward. You can follow the steps mentioned below to find the answer.

Step 2: To express the number 1 8 as an improper fraction, we need to convert the whole number into the same base as any fractional part. However, since there is no fractional part in this case, we consider 1 as 1/1 and 8 as 8/1. Step 3: Therefore, 1 can be written as 1/1 and 8 can be added directly as 8/1. The sum of these gives 17/1. Thus, 1 8 can be written as a fraction 17/1.
