Problem: Converting Improper Fractions to Mixed Numbers and Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions
#### Part 1: Converting Improper Fractions to Mixed Numbers
An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator. To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, follow these steps:
1. Divide the numerator by the denominator.
2. The quotient becomes the whole number part.
3. The remainder becomes the numerator of the fractional part.
4. The denominator remains the same.
Let's solve each problem step by step.
