28/6 is 4 2/3 in simplest form

The way we arrive at this answer is
6 can be divided from 28 at least 4 times maximum.
6 times 4 is 24.
28 - 24 = 4.
The 6's that have been taken away from the fraction becomes 1's, because 6/6 is equivalent to 1.
Therefore, 1 times 4 is 4, because we had taken away from the fraction 4 times.
What you get is 4 4/6. However, that is not in simplest form yet.
4/6 can be simplified to 2/3 by dividing by two.

The answer you should get is 4 2/3
