Steps to convert 60/17 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 60/17 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 [17] goes into the numerator [60]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

60 ÷ 17 = 3.53 = 3

(Quotient of 3 and a remainder of 9)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [9].

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [3] and multiplying it by the original denominator [17]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [60]:

60 - (3 × 17)

=

60 - 51 = 9

3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [9] and put it above the original denominator [17], and then put the whole number [3] before it
