How do you convert an improper fraction to a mixed number?
To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, you need to divide the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number). The quotient becomes the whole number part of the mixed number, while the remainder becomes the numerator of the fractional part. The denominator remains the same. For example, if we have the improper fraction 5/2, we divide 5 by 2 to get 2 as the quotient and 1 as the remainder. So, the mixed number equivalent of 5/2 is 2 1/2.
