Steps to convert 51/40 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 51/40 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 [40] goes into the numerator [51]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

51 ÷ 40 = 1.28 = 1

(Quotient of 1 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 [1] and multiplying it by the original denominator [40]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [51]:

51 - (1 × 40)

=

51 - 40 = 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 [40], and then put the whole number [1] before it
