Steps to convert 71/13 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 71/13 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 [5] and multiplying it by the original denominator [13]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [71]:

71 - (5 × 13)

=

71 - 65 = 6
