Final answer:

To convert improper fractions to mixed numbers, divide the numerator by the denominator. The whole number part is the result and the fractional part is the remainder as the numerator and the denominator from the original fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert improper fractions to mixed numbers, follow these steps:

  1. Divide the numerator by the denominator.
  2. The whole number part of the mixed number is the result from step 1.
  3. The fractional part of the mixed number is the remainder from step 1 as the numerator and the denominator from the original fraction.

For example, let's convert the improper fraction 29/4 to a mixed number:

  1. Divide 29 by 4. The result is 7 with a remainder of 1.
  2. The whole number part is 7.
  3. The fractional part is 1/4.

Therefore, 29/4 is equal to 7 1/4.
