Steps to convert 49/24 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 49/24 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 [24] goes into the numerator [49]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

49 ÷ 24 ≈ 2.04 = 2

(Quotient of 2 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 [2] and multiplying it by the original denominator [24]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [49]:

49 - (2 × 24)

=

49 - 48 = 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 [24], and then put the whole number [2] before it
