Question

Express 105/20 as a mixed number in simplest form.

Answer 1

the integer part of
`(105)/(20) = 5`
5*20=100
105-100=5
The mixed number in simplest form of 105/20 = 5
`(5)/(20)` =

5
`(1)/(4)`

Answer 2

we know that

A mixed number is a number consisting of a whole number and a proper fraction.

so

we know that

`(105)/(20)=5.25\\ \\(105)/(20)=5+0.25\\ \\(105)/(20)=5+(25)/(100) \\ \\(105)/(20)=5+ (1)/(4)\\ \\(105)/(20)=5(1)/(4)`

therefore

the answer is

`5(1)/(4)`
