how do you convert a REGULAR fraction into a mixed number.
Answered by Zoe
Is anyone there? :(
Answered by Ms. Sue
By a regular fraction, do you mean like 12/8?

Divide the numerator by the denominator.

12/8 = 1 4/8 = 1 1/2

Answered by Zoe
A proper fraction
Answered by Ms. Sue
4/6 = 1/3 is less than 1. It can't be converted to a mixed number.

Please see the link I posted above.
