Sometimes fractions exceed the value of "1", making them improper. Such fractions, such as 92/2 (or 46 in its decimal form), can be rewritten as what we call "mixed numbers", providing a clearer understanding and representation of the value.
Step-by-step conversion of 92/2 to a mixed number
- Simplify the fraction (92/2) by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their GCD (2): 92/2 = 46 and 2/2 = 1. This gives 46.
- Use the Euclidean division method to divide the numerator (46) by the denominator (1): 46 ÷ 1 = 46 remainder 0
- The integer of the mixed number is equal to the quotient (46) of the long division.
- The numerator of the fractional part is equal to the remainder (0) of the long division.
- The denominator of the fractional part remains the original denominator (1).
- Combine these element to form the fractional part:
