Steps to convert 98/19 to a mixed number

In order to convert our improper fraction 98/19 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 [19] goes into the numerator [98]. To do this we divide the numerator by the denominator:

98 ÷ 19 ≈ 5.16 = 5

(Quotient of 5 and a remainder of 3)

2. Find the New Numerator. Our new numerator is equal to the remainder from previous step [3].

You may also calculate a remainder by using the whole number we calculated in the first step [5] and multiplying it by the original denominator [19]. And then subtract the result from the original numerator [98]:

98 - (5 × 19)

=

98 - 95 = 3

3. Get our mixed number. To complete our mixed number we need to take the new numerator from previous step [3] and put it above the original denominator [19], and then put the whole number [5] before it
