19 over 6 rewritten as 19/6

First you need to divide 19 by 6 and see how many times 6 can go into 19 wholesomely (without decimals). So: 6, 12, 18

The most 6 can go into 19 without making a decimal is 3 times.

Now 3 is your whole number for the mix number.

Then you subtract 18 from 19 to find the fraction left over since 6 cannot go into 19 without creating a decimal number.

19 - 18 = 1.

You use the 1 and put it out of 6 (1/6) because that's the leftovers (or just a decimal in fraction form.)

Finally you put the whole number, 3, together with the leftover, 1/6.

3 1/6
