Question

Find the mixed number equivalent to the im
proper fraction 22/6

Answer 1

`3(2)/(3)`

Explanation:

Given the following question:


`(22)/(6)`

In order to convert a mixed number into an improper fraction we have to divide the numerator (in this case; 22) by the denominator (in this case; 6) to find your answer.


`(22)/(6)`

`(22)/(6) /2=(11)/(3)`

`(11)/(3)=11/3=3(2)/(3)`

`=3(2)/(3)`

Let three represent how many times 3 goes into 11, let 2 represent the remainder while of course keeping the denominator the same. Your answer is "3 2/3."

Hope this helps.
