Question

I need to write fractions as mixed numbers 36/6 20/10 15/8 13/6​

Answer 1

6, 2, 8 7/8, 2 1/3

Explanation:

36/6 represents a division: 36 divided by 6

answer: 6

20/10 also division: 20 divided by 10

answer: 2

15/8 also division (long division...) 15 divided by 8

you will have a remainder (that will become your numerator)

the decimal of that division is 1.875 as a fraction that is a mixed number:

8 AND 875/1000 but!! you are not done yet (that fraction has to be simplified)

If you divide the fractional portion by the greatest common factor (125) you can simplify your fraction to 8 7/8

13/6 is 13 divided by 6 = 2 with a remainder of 2 = 2 2/6 simplified = 2 1/3

Answer 2

36/6 = 6

20/10 = 2

15/8 = 1 7/8

13/6 = 2 1/6

Hope this helped!
