You can only make a fraction into a mixed number if the top number (numerator) is larger than the bottom number (denominator) by dividing.For example, we have
23/4
we can see that 23 (numerator) is larger than 4 (denominator)
To get to a mixed number, 23 is divided by 4.
How many times does 4 go into 23?
4x1=4
4x2=8
4x3=12
4x4=16
4x5=20
4x6=24
So 4 goes into 23, 5 times with a reminder of 3.
so the mixed number is 5 3/4
If the fraction was 20/4, simplifying it to a whole number would be 5.
You can make a mixed number with a whole number and a fraction. Ex. 1 3/4 is a mixed number.
To divide a whole number by a mixed number, you must first make the mixed number an improper fraction. You can do this by multiplying the denominator (the bottom number) by the whole number and adding the numerator (the top number) to the product. Once you have done this, take the reciprocal of the improper fraction (simply switch the two numbers around) and multiply it the whole number. Multiply everything out, make it a mixed number, and you're done. (Note: You may have to make the whole number a fraction to multiply it properly. To do this, simply place the whole number in the numerator and make the denominator 1.)
You can make any whole number into a fraction by putting it over 1.
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.
multipy the whole number by the denometer, then add that number to your numerator. now that is your numerator and your denomater stays the same.
mixed number
Stick a whole number and a fraction together and there you have it. 3 and 1/4 is a mixed number.
The mixed number consists of a whole number and a fraction. Multiply the denominator of the fraction portion by the whole number and to this product add the numerator of the fraction portion. This value is the numerator of the new improper fraction. The denominator of the new improper fraction is the same as the denominator of the original fraction portion of the mixed number.

A whole number and a fraction make up a mixed number as for example 2 and 3/5
A mixed number has a whole number and a fraction. A fraction is a number that is less than whole and that has a denominator underneath a numerator. To add or subtract mixed numbers, add or subtract the fractions, then add or subtract the whole numbers. If the fraction portion of a mixed number, such as 2 5/6, is more than the fraction portion of the mixed number you're trying to subtract from, such as 3 1/6, you must borrow from the whole number of the mixed number you're trying to subtract from to make its fraction bigger...

By making it into a fraction. For instance: If you wanted to make 3 into a mixed number, you can do 2 and 5-fifths
There isn't one. You can only make an improper fraction from a mixed fraction, which a whole number with a fraction on its side
You can make any whole number into a fraction by putting it over 1.
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator. The answer is the whole number. Put any remainder over the original denominator to create the fraction part.
To convert a proper fraction into a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator. The whole number part of the mixed number is the result of this division. The remainder becomes the new numerator, and the original denominator remains the same. Write the whole number, followed by the remainder over the original denominator to express the fraction in mixed number form.
