What are the steps to changing an improper fraction into a mixed number?

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

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.
