Steps to convert 8/2 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 8/2 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 [8]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

8 ÷ 2 = 4

8 = 4 × 2 + 0

(Quotient of 4 and a remainder of 0)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [0].

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [4] and multiplying it by the original denominator [2]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [8]:

8 - (4 × 2)

=

8 - 8 = 0

3. Get our mixed number. The remainder is 0, so there is no fractional part: the improper fraction 8/2 is simply the whole number [4]

8
2
=4

That's it! The improper fraction 8/2 is the whole number 4 — there is no fractional part to write beside it.
