Steps to convert 37/6 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 37/6 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 [37]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

37 ÷ 6 = 6.17 = 6

(Quotient of 6 and a remainder of 1)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [1].

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [6] and multiplying it by the original denominator [6]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [37]:

37 - (6 × 6)

=

37 - 36 = 1

3. Get our mixed number. To complete our mixed number we need to take the new numerator from previous step [1] and put it above the original denominator [6], and then put the whole number [6] before it

37
6
=6
1
6

That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 37/6 to the mixed number 6 1/6.
