To convert the improper fraction \( \frac{13}{5} \) to a mixed number, divide the numerator (13) by the denominator (5).
1. Divide 13 by 5, which gives a quotient of 2.
2. Multiply the quotient (2) by the denominator (5), which equals 10.
3. Subtract this product (10) from the numerator (13):
\( 13 - 10 = 3 \)
So, we have a whole number (2) and a remainder (3).
Therefore, \( \frac{13}{5} \) can be written as the mixed number:
\[ 2 \frac{3}{5} \]
