Steps to convert 231/20 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 231/20 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 [20] goes into the numerator [231]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [11] and multiplying it by the original denominator [20]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [231]:

231 - (11 × 20)

=

231 - 220 = 11

3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [11] and put it above the original denominator [20], and then put the whole number [11] before it
