Answer:

5
(2)/(15)

Explanation:

A mixed number consists of a whole number and a proper fraction (meaning the numerator is less than the denominator).

To get a mixed number, we are going to divide 77/15 using long division:

(I attached an image down below for you to understand better)

15 goes into 77 only 5 times with a remainder of 2.

So our whole number is 5

And the remainder of 2 become of the numerator of our proper fraction, with 15 being our denominator.

So your answer is 5
(2)/(15)

Hope it helps (●'◡'●)
