Steps to convert 80/9 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 80/9 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 [9] goes into the numerator [80]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

80 ÷ 9 ≈ 8.89 = 8

(Quotient of 8 and a remainder of 8)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [8].

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [8] and multiplying it by the original denominator [9]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [80]:

80 - (8 × 9)

=

80 - 72 = 8

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

80
