    How to write 27/6 as a Mixed Number?

    Answer

    The fraction 27/6 as a mixed number is
    4 1/2

    Since we have an improper fraction (the numerator [27] is greater than the denominator [6]), we can convert it into a mixed number (a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction):

    27
    6
    =4
    1
    2

    Steps to convert 27/6 to a mixed number

    In order to convert our improper fraction 27/6 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 [6] goes into the numerator [27]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

    27 ÷ 6 = 4.5 = 4

    (Quotient of 4 and a remainder of 3)

    2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [3].

    You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [4] and multiplying it by the original denominator [6]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [27]:

    27 - (4 × 6)

    =

    27 - 24 = 3

    3. Get our mixed number. To complete our mixed number we need to take the new numerator from previous step [3] and put it above the original denominator [6], and then put the whole number [4] before it

    27
    6
    =4
    3
    6

    Simplify the fractional part. The fractional part [3/6] can still be reduced. Divide both its numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor [3]:

    4
    3
    6
    =4
    1
    2

    That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 27/6 to the mixed number 4 1/2.
