Step 1 - Find Whole Number
Calculate out how many times the denominator goes into the numerator. To do that, divide 311 by 34 and keep only what is to the left of the decimal point: 311 / 34 = 9.1471 = 9
Step 2 - Find New Numerator
Multiply the answer from Step 1 by the denominator and deduct that from the original numerator. 311 - (34 x 9) = 5
Step 3 - Get Solution
Keep the original denominator and use the answers from Step 1 and Step 2 to get the answer. 311/34 as a mixed number is
9
5/34
