Steps to convert 243/20 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 243/20 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 [243]. 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 [12] and multiplying it by the original denominator [20]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [243]:

243 - (12 × 20)

=

243 - 240 = 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 [20], and then put the whole number [12] before it
