61/2 to a mixed number
How to write 61/2 as a Mixed Number?
Answer
Since we have an improper fraction (the numerator [61] is greater than the denominator [2]), we can convert it into a mixed number (a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction):
Steps to convert 61/2 to a mixed number
In order to convert our improper fraction 61/2 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 [2] goes into the numerator [61]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:
61 ÷ 2 = 30.5 = 30
(Quotient of 30 and a remainder of 1)
2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [1].
You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [30] and multiplying it by the original denominator [2]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [61]:
61 - (30 × 2)
=61 - 60 = 1
3. Get our mixed number. To complete our mixed number we need to take the new numerator from previous step [1] and put it above the original denominator [2], and then put the whole number [30] before it
That's it! We have successfully converted the improper fraction 61/2 to the mixed number 30 1/2.
