Answer:

43/54

Explanation:

A mixed number can only be obtained from an improper fraction, which is when the numerator is greater than the denominator. In this case, the numerator, 43, is not greater than the denominator, 54.

If 54 were the numerator and we had
(54)/(43), we could calculate the mixed number as follows:

  1. Determine the number of times the numerator is divisible by the denominator. This will be the integer
    a in the mixed number
    a(b)/(c).
  • 54 is divisible by 43 only one time with a remainder of 11.

2. We have all the necessary info. 11 is
b and the denominator, 43 is
c. Thus, the mixed number would be
1(11)/(43).
