To convert an improper fraction into a mixed number, you divide the top number (numerator) by the bottom number (denominator).
- The
whole number part is the answer to the division.
- The
remainder becomes the new top number (numerator).
- The
bottom number (denominator) stays the same.
Let’s solve each one step by step:
---
a) 18/8
Divide 18 ÷ 8 = 2 with a remainder of 2
→ So, 18/8 =
2 2/8
*(Note: We can simplify 2/8 to 1/4, but since the worksheet keeps the denominator as 8, we leave it as 2/8 unless instructed otherwise.)*
But looking at the format in the problem — they want the fractional part over the original denominator. So we keep it as 2/8.
✔ Final for a):
2 2/8
---
b) 28/6
28 ÷ 6 = 4 with remainder 4
→ 28/6 =
4 4/6
✔ Final for b):
4 4/6
---
c) 14/3
14 ÷ 3 = 4 with remainder 2
→ 14/3 =
4 2/3
✔ Final for c):
4 2/3
---
d) 9/2
9 ÷ 2 = 4 with remainder 1
→ 9/2 =
4 1/2
✔ Final for d):
4 1/2
---
e) 31/4
31 ÷ 4 = 7 with remainder 3
→ 31/4 =
7 3/4
✔ Final for e):
7 3/4
---
f) 22/5
22 ÷ 5 = 4 with remainder 2
→ 22/5 =
4 2/5
✔ Final for f):
4 2/5
---
g) 50/9
50 9 = 5 with remainder 5
→ 50/9 =
5 5/9
✔ Final for g):
5 5/9
---
h) 52/10
52 ÷ 10 = 5 with remainder 2
→ 52/10 =
5 2/10
✔ Final for h):
5 2/10
---
Final Answer:
a) 2 2/8
b) 4 4/6
c) 4 2/3
d) 4 1/2
e) 7 3/4
f) 4 2/5
g) 5 5/9
h) 5 2/10
