19/13 to a mixed number
How to write 19/13 as a Mixed Number?
Since we have an improper fraction (the numerator [19] is greater than the denominator [13]), we can convert it into a mixed number (a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction):
Steps to convert 19/13 to a mixed number
In order to convert our improper fraction 19/13 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 [13] goes into the numerator [19]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:
19 ÷ 13 = 1.46 = 1
(Quotient of 1 and a remainder of 6)
2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [6].
You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [1] and multiplying it by the original denominator [13]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [19]:
19 - (1 × 13)
=19 - 13 = 6
3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [6] and put it above the original denominator [13], and then put the whole number [1] before it
That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 19/13 to the mixed number 1 6/13.
