14/5 as a mixed number would be 2 4/5.

To convert an improper fraction into a mixed number, we must first multiply the denominator by the number that gets us closest to the numerator without going over it:

5(2) = 10

5(3) = 15

With our new whole number of 2, we have 10. Now we have to find how much 10 is from 14 and put our answer as a numerator over 5:

14 - 10 = 4

Therefore, 14/5 as a mixed number is 2 4/5. As a decimal, this would be 2.80.

Answer:


\boxed{\sf 2(4)/(5)}

Explanation:

To convert the improper fraction
\sf (14)/(5) into a mixed fraction, you need to find out how many whole numbers can be obtained from the fraction and what is left as a proper fraction.

Divide the numerator (14) by the denominator (5):

14 รท 5 = 2 with a remainder of 4

The quotient (2) becomes the whole number part of the mixed fraction, and the remainder (4) becomes the numerator of the proper fraction.

The denominator remains the same (5).

So, the mixed fraction is
\sf 2(4)/(5)..

This means you have 2 whole parts and 4/5 of another part.

Therefore, Mixed fraction of
\sf (14)/(5) is
\boxed{\sf 2(4)/(5)}
