Assuming that the fraction is 5/6, or 5 over 6, the number 6 is the denominator. The denominator is also called the divisor when dividing.
6 parts out of a whole, 5/6 is 5 out of 6 parts
The mixed number 6 and 5/6 is equivalent to 41/6 as an improper fraction.
As mixed number the improper fraction of 23/6 is 3 and 5/6
0.8333
To make a mixed number into an improper fraction, multiply the whole number in front by the denominator (the bottom number of the fraction). Add the result to the numerator (the number on top) and replace it over the denominator.Therefore: (3 X 6 = 18) + 5/6 = 23/6
6 parts out of a whole, 5/6 is 5 out of 6 parts
The mixed number 6 and 5/6 is equivalent to 41/6 as an improper fraction.
5/6 cannot be an improper fraction. You need a mixed number to reveal an improper fraction. 5/6 is just a regular fraction.
The ratio of 5 to 6 as a fraction is 5/6. What you need to remember in doing problems like this is that the first number corresponds to the numerator (top number) in the fraction, and the second number corresponds to the denominator (bottom number) in the fraction. This ratio 5 to 6 is basically saying "5 parts out of 6" and therefore is easy to turn into a fraction... but only if you think of it this way. :-D Good luck! Jackie
Improper fraction is 23/6 and mixed number is 3 5/6

30/6 = 5
Because 5 out of 6 or 5/6 as a fraction is a rational number and irrational numbers can't be expressed as fractions.
