Steps to convert 115/8 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 115/8 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 [8] goes into the numerator [115]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

115 ÷ 8 = 14.38 = 14

(Quotient of 14 and a remainder of 3)

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [14] and multiplying it by the original denominator [8]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [115]:

115 - (14 × 8)

=

115 - 112 = 3

3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [3] and put it above the original denominator [8], and then put the whole number [14] before it
