    How to write 402/15 as a Mixed Number?

    Answer

    The fraction 402/15 as a mixed number is
    26 4/5

    Since we have an improper fraction (the numerator [402] is greater than the denominator [15]), we can convert it into a mixed number (a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction):

    402
    15
    =26
    4
    5

    Steps to convert 402/15 to a mixed number

    In order to convert our improper fraction 402/15 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 [15] goes into the numerator [402]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

    402 ÷ 15 = 26.8 = 26

    (Quotient of 26 and a remainder of 12)

    2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [12].

    You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [26] and multiplying it by the original denominator [15]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [402]:

    402 - (26 × 15)

    =

    402 - 390 = 12

    3. Get our mixed number. To complete our mixed number we need to take the new numerator from previous step [12] and put it above the original denominator [15], and then put the whole number [26] before it

    402
    15
    =26
    12
    15

    Simplify the fractional part. The fractional part [12/15] can still be reduced. Divide both its numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor [3]:

    26
    12
    15
    =26
    4
    5

    That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 402/15 to the mixed number 26 4/5.
