How do you simplify a fraction with the numerator bigger than the denominator?
When the numerator is bigger than the denomator, it is called a impropper fraction. What you must do is change the impropper fraction to a mixed number. For example a mixed number is 5 and 3/8 (5 3/8). To change to a mixed number, you divide the numerator by the denomintaor. If it comes out even, that single number is your answer, for example, 9/3, would be simplified to 3. However if when you divided the numerator, by the denom., the number was not even, you put the number before the remainder down on the paper. Then the remainder you, will put in the numerator in the fraction next to the 5. The denominator will be the original denominator of the impropper fraction. For example, say you have the mixed number, 10/6, then you divide 10 by six which is not exactly 1, but that is the most amount of times 6 goes into 10. So now you have 1. The remainder would be 4, you would have 4 left over from dividing, now you have 1 4/, the original denominator was 6, so the answer is 1 4/6.. I hope that helped!
