Answer:


\sf 5(3)/(5)

Explanation:

Terms used here are:
Dividend
The number which has to be divided. (numerator)

Divisor
The number which divides the dividend (denominator)

Quotient
The result of the division (whole number)

Remainder
The leftover part or the number left after the division which cannot be divided further

Steps to convert improper fraction to mixed fraction:

  1. Divide the numerator by the denominator
  2. Write down the whole number result
  3. Use the remainder as the new numerator over the denominator. This is the fraction part of the mixed number.

.

Here the dividend = 28 and the divisor = 5

28 รท 5 = 5 this is the quotient, the number of times 5 goes into 28 as a whole number. Note 5 x 5 = 25 and that is the highest integer number of times 5 can be multiplied without going over 28


The remainder is what is left over = 28 - 5 x 5 = 28 - 25 = 3

The mixed fraction is quotient + remainder/divisor = 5 + 3/5 written as
\sf 5(3)/(5)
