47/12 to a mixed number
How to write 47/12 as a Mixed Number?
Since we have an improper fraction (the numerator [47] is greater than the denominator [12]), we can convert it into a mixed number (a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction):
Steps to convert 47/12 to a mixed number
In order to convert our improper fraction 47/12 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 [12] goes into the numerator [47]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:
47 ÷ 12 = 3.92 = 3
(Quotient of 3 and a remainder of 11)
2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [11].
You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [3] and multiplying it by the original denominator [12]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [47]:
47 - (3 × 12)
=47 - 36 = 11
3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [11] and put it above the original denominator [12], and then put the whole number [3] before it
That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 47/12 to the mixed number 3 11/12.
