Steps to convert 61/16 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 61/16 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 [16] goes into the numerator [61]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

61 ÷ 16 = 3.81 = 3

(Quotient of 3 and a remainder of 13)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [13].

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 [16]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [61]:

61 - (3 × 16)

=

61 - 48 = 13

3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [13] and put it above the original denominator [16], and then put the whole number [3] before it
