Read your test questions carefully.  Many questions will give examples to show you how to write your answer.  When your answer has a fraction, use the / to separate the numerator and denominator.  If your answer has a whole number and a fraction, place a space between the whole number and fraction. Examples:  Three fourths is written as 3/4.                    Five and one half is written as 5 1/2   (not 51/2)   Using the Mental Math Technique—Taking Parts from Wholes, solve the following problem:     9 − 2/9.
