Steps to convert 10/2 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 10/2 to a mixed number, we need to follow three basic steps:

1. Find the whole number. First we need to calculate how many times the denominator [2] goes into the numerator [10]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

10 ÷ 2 = 5

10 = 5 × 2 + 0

(Quotient of 5 and a remainder of 0)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [0].

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [5] and multiplying it by the original denominator [2]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [10]:

10 - (5 × 2)

=

10 - 10 = 0

3. Get our mixed number. The remainder is 0, so there is no fractional part: the improper fraction 10/2 is simply the whole number [5]

10
2
=5

That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 10/2 to the mixed number 5.
