Converts improper to mixed number \[\frac{n}{d}=w\left(\frac{r}{d}\right)\]
An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (the top number) is greater than or equal to the denominator (the bottom number). It represents a value that is greater than or equal to 1. For example, 5/4, 7/3, and 11/2 are all examples of improper fractions.
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, follow these steps:
Divide the numerator by the denominator.
Write down the whole number part (the quotient).
Write down the remainder as the new numerator.
The original denominator remains the same.
For example, let’s convert the improper fraction 7/3 to a mixed number:
1. Divide 7 by 3: 7 ÷ 3 = 2 remainder 1.
2. The whole number part is 2.
3. The remainder, 1, becomes the new numerator.
4. The original denominator, 3, remains the same.
9/4 = 9 ÷ 4 = 2 remainder 1. So, 9/4 = 2 1/4.
11/5 = 11 ÷ 5 = 2 remainder 1. So, 11/5 = 2 1/5.
17/6 = 17 ÷ 6 = 2 remainder 5. So, 17/6 = 2 5/6.
