    How to write 36/8 as a Mixed Number?

    Answer

    The fraction 36/8 as a mixed number is
    4 1/2

    Since we have an improper fraction (the numerator [36] is greater than the denominator [8]), we can convert it into a mixed number (a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction):

    36
    8
    =4
    1
    2

    Steps to convert 36/8 to a mixed number

    In order to convert our improper fraction 36/8 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 [8] goes into the numerator [36]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

    36 ÷ 8 = 4.5

    36 = 4 × 8 + 4

    (Quotient of 4 and a remainder of 4)

    2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [4].

    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 [8]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [36]:

    36 - (4 × 8)

    =

    36 - 32 = 4

    3. Get our mixed number. To complete our mixed number we need to take the new numerator from previous step [4] and put it above the original denominator [8], and then put the whole number [4] before it

    36
    8
    =4
    4
    8

    Simplify the fractional part. The fractional part [4/8] can still be reduced. Divide both its numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor [4]:

    4
    4
    8
    =4
    1
    2

    That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 36/8 to the mixed number 4 1/2.
