55/24 to a mixed number
How to write 55/24 as a Mixed Number?
Since we have an improper fraction (the numerator [55] is greater than the denominator [24]), we can convert it into a mixed number (a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction):
Steps to convert 55/24 to a mixed number
In order to convert our improper fraction 55/24 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 [55]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:
55 ÷ 24 = 2.29 = 2
(Quotient of 2 and a remainder of 7)
2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [7].
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 [55]:
55 - (2 × 24)
=55 - 48 = 7
3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [7] and put it above the original denominator [24], and then put the whole number [2] before it
That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 55/24 to the mixed number 2 7/24.
