If you are given a sum with a remainder, for example, 17 / 5 = 3 remainder 2, then you can convert the number to a mixed number by putting the remainder as the numerator of the fraction, and the divisor as the denominator of the fraction. At this point, the fractional part of the sum can easily be turned into a decimal by dividing the numerator of the fraction by the denominator - therefore, 17 / 5 = 3 2/5 or 3.4.
For an improper fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator, you have to remove the largest whole number represented in the numerator. 1) To find this whole number, divide the numerator by the denominator and it will give you the whole number part of your answer. 2) The remainder is your numerator for the fraction part of your number. 3) write the whole number from step 1, and the fraction left over in step 2, and reduce the fraction if asked to. Example: 15/4 1) Divide 15 by 4 = 3 with a remainder of 3 2) Your answer is 3 and 3/4 3) Multiply to check 3 x 4/4 = 12/4 + 3/4 = 15/4 Example : 17/3 1) Divide 17 by 3 = 5 with a remainder of 2 2) Your answer is 5 and 2/3 3) Multiply to check 5 x 3/3 = 15/3 + 2/3 = 17/3
An IMPROPER FRaction can be converted to a mixed number/fraction. Here is an example 14/3 Divide the '3' into '14' . It will go '4 ' times with a remainder of '2'. So the '4' becomes the coefficient (big) number and the '2' is placed over the '3' to make a faction. So 14/3 = 4 2/3 Mixed number/fraction.
To turn an improper fraction into a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The answer is the whole number. Put the remainder over the original denominator. 11/3 = 3 and 2/3
Put the remainder over the divisor. 20 divided by 7 equals 2 remainder 6 or 2 and 6/7.

If you are given a sum with a remainder, for example, 17 / 5 = 3 remainder 2, then you can convert the number to a mixed number by putting the remainder as the numerator of the fraction, and the divisor as the denominator of the fraction. At this point, the fractional part of the sum can easily be turned into a decimal by dividing the numerator of the fraction by the denominator - therefore, 17 / 5 = 3 2/5 or 3.4.
'3' is the quotient. 7/3 as a fraction can also be read as ; '7' is the numerator, and '3' is the denominator'.
Put the remainder as the numerator of the fraction. Put the divisor (the number that you divided by) in the denominator. Example 20 ÷ 6 = 3 remainder 2. the fraction is 2 / 6, which can simplify to 1/3 if you wish. So the answer is 3 1/3.
3 goes into 11 three times with a remainder of 2. We can write this a 11 divided by 3 = 3 remainder 2. We can also write it as a fraction 11/3 which can be written as 3 and 2/3rds.This is because instead of writing remainder 2 we can write the answer and 3+2/3. This shows us that 3 goes into 11 3 times and shows us the remainder is 2 also.
Example of an improper fraction is 11/4 To convert to a mixed fraction, divide the numerator 11 by the denominator 4 thus: 11 / 4 = 2 remainder 3 The 2 is the whole number, and the remainder 3 is placed over the denominator 4 thus: 2 3/4
Since 5/3 is an improper fraction, it can be written as it is or as a mixed number. To convert 5/3 to a mixed number, you can divide 5 by 3, because a fraction bar also stands for the division symbol. When you divide, you get 1 with a remainder of 2. To change this answer, 1 remainder 2, to a mixed number, simply make 2 the numerator and the divisor (3) the denominator of a fraction, and add this fraction to 1. 1 2/3 is the answer. Hope this helps!! :)

You divide by the denominator. You write the result of the division as the whole number, and the remainder on top of the old denominator. Example: 14/3; divide 14 by 3. The result is 4, remainder is 2, so you write the result as 4 2/3.
You divide the numerator (top) by the denominator (bottom). The remainder goes into the numerator. As an example, to convert the fraction 17/7, you divide 17 by 7. The result is 2, and the remainder is 3. Therefore, it is equivalent to 2 3/7.
To convert a remainder into a fraction, you can simply place the remainder over the divisor. For example, if you have a remainder of 2 when dividing 7 by 3, you can express it as 2/3. To convert the remainder into a decimal, divide the remainder by the divisor. In the same example, dividing 2 by 3 would give you 0.666... or 0.67 when rounded to two decimal places.
The numerator of the fraction is '2'. The denominator of the fraction is the divisor (the number you were dividing by).
