Steps to convert 73/33 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 73/33 to a mixed number, we need to follow three basic steps:

(Quotient of 2 and a remainder of 7)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [7].

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [2] and multiplying it by the original denominator [33]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [73]:

73 - (2 × 33)

=

73 - 66 = 7

3. Get our mixed number. To complete our mixed number we need to take the new numerator from previous step [7] and put it above the original denominator [33], and then put the whole number [2] before it

73
