Steps to convert 5/5 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 5/5 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 [5] goes into the numerator [5]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

5 = 1 × 5 + 0

(Quotient of 1 and a remainder of 0)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [0].

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [1] and multiplying it by the original denominator [5]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [5]:

5 - (1 × 5)

=

5 - 5 = 0
