When 8 25/56 is converted to a fraction, what is the value?

  1. 3 7/79

  2. 114/175

  3. 0.724

  4. 9 11/21

The correct answer is: 114/175

Converting between mixed numbers and fractions involves finding equivalent forms of the number. Option A, 3 7/79, is a mixed number in the form of a fraction, but it does not equal 8 25/56. Option C, 0.724, is a decimal and does not represent a fraction. Option D, 9 11/21, is a mixed number in a different form than the original number and also does not equal 8 25/56. Therefore, the only correct answer is option B, 114/175.
