(A)

\(33/7\)

(B)

\(39/7\)

(C)

\(33/4\)

Detailed Answer with Explanation:

A mixed fraction has a whole number and a proper fraction.

We want to change (5 rac{4}{7}) into an improper fraction.

Step 1: Multiply the whole number by the denominator.

(5 imes 7 = 35)

Step 2: Add the numerator.

(35 + 4 = 39)

Step 3: Keep the same denominator.

So the numerator is (39) and the denominator is (7).

Result: (dfrac{39}{7})

Quick check: (39 div 7 = 5) remainder (4), which is (5 rac{4}{7}). Correct.
