29/5 as a mixed number is: 5 4/5
This is because in order to get a mixed number you first must see how many times you can get the denominator into the numerator. In this case it is 5 times since 5 x 5 is 25 but 5 x 6 is 30, which is over 29. So then we do 29 - 25 to figure out the remaining value, which is 4. We leave this over the original denominator, 5, while moving the 5 out of the fraction to the front.
