Steps to convert 117/5 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 117/5 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 [5] goes into the numerator [117]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

117 ÷ 5 = 23.4 = 23

(Quotient of 23 and a remainder of 2)

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

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [23] and multiplying it by the original denominator [5]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [117]:

117 - (23 × 5)

=

117 - 115 = 2

3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [2] and put it above the original denominator [5], and then put the whole number [23] before it
