Question

Write 13/9 as a mixed number

Answer 1

Answer: 1 and 4/9

Explanation: To write 13/9 as a mixed number, we divide 9 into 13.

9 divides into 13 once so we put a 1 above the 3.

1 x 9 is 9 and 13 - 9 is 4.

So 9 divides into 13 one time with a remainder of 4.

This means that 13/9 can be rewritten as the mixed number 1 and 4/9.

Answer 2

`(13)/(9)=(9+4)/(9)=(9)/(9)+(4)/(9)=\boxed{1(4)/(9)}`
