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.
