You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [9] and multiplying it by the original denominator [8]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [73]:

73 - (9 × 8)

=

73 - 72 = 1

3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [1] and put it above the original denominator [8], and then put the whole number [9] before it
