Steps to convert 85/31 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 85/31 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 [31] goes into the numerator [85]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

85 ÷ 31 = 2.74 = 2

(Quotient of 2 and a remainder of 23)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [23].

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 [31]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [85]:

85 - (2 × 31)

=

85 - 62 = 23

3. Get our mixed fraction. To complete our mixed fraction we need to take the new numerator from previous step [23] and put it above the original denominator [31], and then put the whole number [2] before it
