Answer:

For example, since the denominator of the improper fraction 8/3 goes into its numerator 2 times—in other words, since 8 ÷ 3 = 2 remainder 2—we know that the whole number part of the mixed fraction representing the improper fraction 8/3 is 2. That's half the answer

Answer:

2 2/3

Explanation:

8/3= 2 2/3

Find out how many times 3 goes into 8.

3 goes into 8: 2 times

Because

3x2=6

8-6=2

Then you keep the Denominator, 8.
