Answer:

15 5/13

Step-by-step answer:

1. Find multiples of the denominator (in this case it is 13)

2. Find the closest number that is lower than or equal to the numerator (in this case 200)

3. Subtract the number you have just found from the numerator

4. Put it all together!

1. 200/13

13 × 10 = 130

13 × 15 = 195 <-- This is the number we want. Keep this equation in mind because 15 will also appear in the final answer!

13 × 16 = 208

2. 195 as shown previously

3. 200 - 195 = 5 <--- this will be the new numerator

4. 15 5/13

(remember the denominator stays the same)
