What is an Improper Fraction to Mixed Number Conversion?
An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (the top number) is greater than or equal to the denominator (the bottom number). To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, you divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient becomes the whole number part of the mixed number, and the remainder becomes the numerator of the fractional part, keeping the same denominator.
For example, to convert 11/4 to a mixed number, divide 11 by 4. The quotient is 2 and the remainder is 3. So, 11/4 as a mixed number is 2 3/4.
- Improper Fraction: Numerator ≥ Denominator (e.g., 7/3, 15/4).
- Mixed Number: A whole number and a proper fraction combined (e.g., 2 1/3, 3 3/4).
- Conversion Formula: If improper fraction is numerator/denominator, then Mixed Number is quotient remainder/denominator, where quotient and remainder are from the division of numerator by denominator.
