Steps to convert 56/4 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 56/4 to a mixed number, we need to follow three basic steps:

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [14] and multiplying it by the original denominator [4]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [56]:

56 - (14 × 4)

=

56 - 56 = 0
