Put the remainder over the number you originally divided by. 15 divided by 7 = 2, remainder 1 = 2 and 1/7
When the remainder is zero the answer is a whole number. Put that number over 1 for an improper fraction.
To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, add that total to the numerator and put the whole thing over the original denominator. There won't be a remainder.
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The answer is the whole number. Put any remainder over the original denominator to create the fraction part.
Divide the numerator by the denominator. The number above the line is the whole number and the remainder over the divisor is the fraction. For example: 37/5 Divide 37 by 5. The whole number is 7 (5 X 7 is 35). The remainder is 2, so the fraction is 2/5. The mixed number is 7 2/5.
Divide the denominator into the numerator. The result is the whole number. Put the remainder over the original denominator.
This question looks a little turned around. You can't change a proper fraction to an improper one unless you add something to it and improper fractions don't have whole numbers. To change an improper fraction to a mixed number (a whole number with a fraction) divide the denominator into the numerator. The result is the whole number. The remainder gets put over the original denominator. 22/7 = 3 and 1/7
If your improper fraction does not produce a remainder when you divide it, then it's just a whole number. 22/11 = 2
Proper fractions can't become whole numbers. Improper fractions can only become whole numbers if the numerator is a multiple of the denominator. To find out, divide the denominator into the numerator. If there is no remainder, it's a whole number.
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The answer is the whole number. Put any remainder over the original denominator to create the fraction part.

Proper fractions are less than 1, so they can't change into whole numbers. Some improper fractions can change into whole numbers. 4/2 = 2 Most improper fractions change into mixed numbers (a whole number with a fraction) To change an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The result is the whole number. The remainder gets put over the original denominator. 22/7 = 3 and 1/7
