45/18, you ask yourself how many times 18 can go into 45. best way if confused get a calculator and do 45 divide by 18. which is 2.5 thus it can go into 45 at least two times.

then what is the remainder of 45 - 2 x 18. it is 9

therefore 45/18 = 2 9/18 = 2 1/2 (reduce fraction)

Hope this helps :P

45 / 18 as a mixed fraction...
To change the improper fraction to the mixed fraction you have to:-
first divide (as you divide) so that you can get remainder, quotient, divisor and dividend.
i.e 45 is dividend and 18 is divisor.

45 / 18 = 2 9 / 18 where 2 is quotient and 9 is remainder...

so the ans is 2 9 / 18
