you first divide 17 by 3 and if you have a remainder don't try to to make it into a decimal now the answer should be 5 so the whole number would be 5 the remainder should be 2 so with 3 as the denominator make the remainder 2 in this case the numerator. the answer is 5 2/3
but if you have a problem where it divides evenly then you wont have to do any of the steps with the remainder the answer to the division would be a whole number by it self
You convert the mixed numeral into an improper fraction. Now subtract the improper fraction from the whole number by putting the whole number over 1.
Whole number
A mixed number.
You change the mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply its denominator by the whole number. Then, if required, convert back to a mixed fraction.
multiply the denominator by the whole number then add the numerator and you have an improper fraction
A mixed number is a whole number and a fraction. It can be rewritten as an improper fraction.

Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction, multiply by the whole number, convert the answer back to a mixed fraction (if required).
It is called a mixed number or a mixed fraction.
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.
