Question

Write 23/6 as a mixed number.
​

Answer 1

`3(5)/(6)`

Explanation:

First you can assume that it cannot be 24 because 23 is one less. So it will be 18:

6 x 3=18

Now, with the 23 you subtract it from 18 to find the numerator of the fraction:

23-18=5

Now you now the numerator (underlined), and the whole number (underlined)

`3(5)/(6)`
