Answer:

12 1/3

Explanation:

1. Divide the numerator by the denominator.

Divide 37 by 3, which equals 12 with a remainder of 1.

37 รท 3 = 12 r1

2. Find the whole number.

The whole number is the number of times the denominator divides into the numerator.

3 (the denominator) divides into 37 (the numerator) 12 times, so 12 is the whole number.

Make the remainder the new numerator.

Because the remainder (the leftover value) of dividing 37 by 3 is 12, 1 is the new numerator. The denominator is still 3. So, the mixed fraction is:

12 1/3

Hope it helps...
