Let’s solve each problem step by step.

Part A: Convert improper fractions to mixed numbers
An
improper fraction has a numerator bigger than the denominator. To turn it into a
mixed number, divide the top by the bottom. The answer is the whole number, and the remainder becomes the new numerator over the same denominator.
1) 9 ÷ 5 = 1 with remainder 4 →
1 4/5
2) 53 ÷ 12 = 4 (because 12×4=48), remainder 5 →
4 5/12
3) 10 ÷ 3 = 3 (3×3=9), remainder 1 →
3 1/3
4) 8 ÷ 7 = 1 (7×1=7), remainder 1 →
1 1/7
5) 65 ÷ 11 = 5 (11×5=55), remainder 10 →
5 10/11
6) 31 ÷ 4 = 7 (4×7=28), remainder 3 →
7 3/4
7) 29 ÷ 6 = 4 (6×4=24), remainder 5 →
4 5/6
8) 74 ÷ 9 = 8 (9×8=72), remainder 2 →
8 2/9

Part B: Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions
A
mixed number has a whole number and a fraction. To make it an
improper fraction:
Multiply the whole number by the denominator, then add the numerator. Put that result over the original denominator.
1) 9 3/10 → (9 × 10) + 3 = 90 + 3 = 93 →
93/10
2) 7 1/2 → (7 × 2) + 1 = 14 + 1 = 15 →
15/2
3) 1 1/6 → (1 × 6) + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7 →
7/6
4) 2 6/11 → (2 × 11) + 6 = 22 + 6 = 28 →
28/11
5) 4 5/8 → (4 × 8) + 5 = 32 + 5 = 37 →
37/8
6) 1 3/5 → (1 × 5) + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8 →
8/5
7) 6 2/7 → (6 × 7) + 2 = 42 + 2 = 44 →
44/7
8) 5 8/9 → (5 × 9) + 8 = 45 + 8 = 53 →
53/9
