To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the integer by the denominator and add the result to the fraction's numerator to create the new numerator, and keep the same denominator.

Example 2 1/3 = [(2 × 3) + 1]/3 = 7/3

Divide the denominator into the numerator. The result is the whole number. Put the remainder over the original denominator. That's the fraction.

39/7 = 5 and 4/7
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, and the largest whole number becomes the integer. The leftover remains as the numerator of the fraction.

Examples

15/7 = 2 plus remainder 1 = 2 1/7

32/30 = 1 plus remainder 2 = 1 2/30 = 1 1/15
you divide the top number (the numerator) by the bottom number (the denominator).

You can convert an improper fraction into a mixed number through division. Divide the numerator (the larger number on top) by the denominator (the smaller number at the bottom). There will always be a remainder for an equation like this. The answer of the division will be the whole number, the remainder will be the numerator and the denominator will be the same with the improper fraction's remainder.

Carry our long devision. If the fraction is c/d and the quotient is q, with remainder r, thenc/d = q r/d.
