Best Answer

example: 25/4= 6 1/4 divide the top number by the bottom number. however many times the bottom number goes into the top number that is your whole number (in the example it is the 6). take your whole number and multiply it by the bottom number and subtract that number from the top number from the original fraction (6x4=24, 25-24=1). the answer to that problem is the top number to your new problem.
