Steps to convert 31/14 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 31/14 to a mixed number, we need to follow three basic steps:

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [2] and multiplying it by the original denominator [14]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [31]:

31 - (2 × 14)

=

31 - 28 = 3
